o 

OUR GRAIN DRILLS, 

IDES' PATENT, are ncknowledged, by all eminent Agrlcnlturists, to be the best in the 
market, for these reasons : 

It sows and distributes any kind of grain more even and uniform than any Drill in the 
market. 

The teeth are placed in two rows, and are therefore not as liable to clog among sods, 
stones or rough ground. 

It is of simpler construction and therefore not as liable to get out of order, and is of 
light draft. 



*'"'"TI"lllll||]IiIM 




THE 1¥HEEL CULTIVATOR 

Is universally conceded to be an indispensable article for any farmer who would have 
his land in perfect order. The teeth of our Cultivators are made of steel, in one piece, 
but can put in cast iron shank teeth, if desired. They arc made with wings or not, as a 
person may desire, and can be rc-pointcd at any time, thus making them last almost a 
life-time. 

OUR PLASTER HOTTER 

Is conceded to be the desideratum for such an article— cheap, light and durable, and do- 
in^its work perfectly. It also sows oats and otilier grain, and can be furnished with a 
light Cultivator attached, which covers the grain, thus saving the usual process of "'drag- 
gmg in," after such an implement. 



We otTer these to the public with perfect confidence. S. R. TRACY has been engaged 
in the manufacture of these implements for the last twenty vears, and has now over Six 
Thousand Cultivators alone scattered through the country.

INTRODUCTION. 



i]VTi^or>rrcTiOiV. 



In presenting the initial number of the "Gazetteer and directory 
of Wayne County" to the public, the publisher desires to return his 
sincere thanks to all who have so kindly assisted in obtaining the 
valuable information which it contains, and without whose aid it 
would have been impossible to have collected, in the brief space of 
time in which it is essential that all such works should be complet- 
ed. Especially are our thanks due to the several editors of the 
Clyde Times, Lyons Republican, Wayne Democratic Press, Neivark 
Weekly Courier, and Palmyra Courier, for the uniform kindness 
which has been evinced in calling public attention to the author's 
efforts, and to them and the following gentleman, viz : George F. 
Torray, H^nry Taylor, M. Loomis, Savannah ; Dr. Mortimer F. 
Sweeting, John McGonnigal, Butler ; Elisha N. Plank, Wolcott ; 
Eron N. Thomas, Rose ; Joseph Watson, Clyde ; Thomas Dorsey, 
Lyons; Pomeroy Tucker, Palmyra; J.D.Ford, Dr. Charles G. 
Pomeroy, Newark ; John F. Packard, Macedon ; Jones Findley, 
T. G. Yeomans, Walworth ; J. S. Thompson, Ethel M, Allen, 
Williamson ; John W. Copping and Israel Springer, Marion ; for 
essential aid in furnishing materials for the work. We have also 
drawn largely from French's Gazetteer of the State of New York ; 
and also to some extent from a "Review of Rev. Mr. Eaton's 
Thanksgiving Sermon, by Wayne Democratic Press." Many oth- 
ers have kindly volunteered their aid, to all of whom we return 
sincere thanks. 



INTBODUCTION. 



When it is known that time, equal to more than three years' la- 
bor, if done by one man, has been devoted to the canvass, it is be- 
lieved the patrons of the woi*k will willingly excuse the delay be- 
yond the time it was expected the work would be issued. 

The advertisers in this work represent the leading business 
men of the county, and we most cheerfully commend them all to 
the patronage of those under whose observation these pages may 
come. 

So complete a canvass of a County for a Business Directory, and 
the additions of farmers names, together with the number of acres 
owned or leased by each, the whole arranged alphabetically, after 
their appropriate post office addresses, we believe was never before 
attempted. 

That errors may have occurred in so great a number of names 
and dates as are here given, is probable. The indulgence of the 
reader is solicited, in marking such as had been observed in the 
subsequent reading of the proofs, and which are noted in the Er- 
rata^ following the Introduction. 

The usual amount of close application, ceaseless eare and men- 
tal labor, necessarily given to this intricate and complicated part 
of book-making, has been bestowed on the present volume ; and 
though it is hoped that none will find an error worth com- 
plaining of, yet, should there be, remember that nothing is 
perfect — that it is human to err, while it is a sublime prerogative 
to forgive 

THE COMPILER.

has 12 schools, employs 12 teachers, and has an average daily attendance of 267 scholars. 
The expenses for school purposes during the year ending Oct., 1866, was $2,796.11. 
^, Savannato.— In addition to the historical description of this town, on pages 57-8, 
the following from M. Loomis, Esq., CivU En«neer at Savannah, additional in regard to 
the Cayuga Marshes, of which he is agent, wUfbe read with interest :— 



10 ERBATA. 



"Tlie extent of the Cayuga Marshes is about 16,000 acres, say 5,000 acres of which is in 
Wayne Co. The Seneca & Cayuga Marsh Company own about 10,000 acres. The sur- 
face soil is decayed vegetation to a depth of five feet, underlying which is a strata, or 
thickness often feet of decomposed shell marl. 

By cutting a canal from the mouth of Crusoe Creek, through Crusoe Lake, up the val- 
ley to Post MiUs, some two miles south of the village of Wolcott, the marshes could be 
effectually drained. The cost of a canal 40 feet wide on the bottom, with 6 feet in depth 
of water, would be $200,000. 

By removing the remaining bars in the Seneca River, for a distance of four miles, 
the water at the marshes would be reduced from two to three feet, and these 
marshes be made available for grass, com, broom corn, and most other summer crops. 
This could be done at a cost of$30,000. 

Marsh grass, for paper stock, is now cut from these marshes. The value of this grass 
for this purpose is not yet determined. Flag for chair bottoming, for famiture and 
cooperage, to the extent of from 150 to 250 tons, is cut annually, which finds a ready sale 
at from $30 to $50 per ton. It is probable that these marshes afford a greater supply of 
this material than any other locality in the United States. 

Two efforts have been made for their drainage ; one by the State in 1827, and another 
in 1854 to 1859 ; but before the work was completed, the appropriations became exhaust- 
ed, and the work abandoned. The amount expended by the State upon this work, is 
about $275,000." 

Sod.us.--On page 58, under head of Sodus (village,) instead of "Baptist," read Epis- 
copal, as one of the churches of that village. 

On page 59, under head oi Sodus Point, for "Genesee," fead Oswego District. 

Sodus Center has two churches. 

Arcadia,~On page 99, JOSEPHUS COOKHSTGHAM, carriage maker, was omitted.

PVELISnER'S NOTICES. 



TJie Empire Wvnd Mill Manuf'g 
Co., Syracuse, JV, F.— This establish- 
ment is located at the comer of Grape and 
Water streets, giving employment to about 
twenty-flve men. They manufacture Self- 
Eegulating Wind Mills for pumping water 
and other purposes, and the American 
Farm Grinding MiU. These Wind Mills 
are sent to all parts of the country, and the 
company have many letters of commenda- 
tion from their customers. They aim to 
manufacture and sell a reliable and thor- 
ough article, and by their large experience 
in the business are able to meet the varied 
vrants of different cases which come up. 
The Mills now built are from 6 to 33 feet in 
diameter, weighing from 320 to 8,000 lbs. 
They have been very thoroughly and se- 
verely tested in all sorts of weather, and 
the company feel able heartUy to recom- 
mend them for any purpose for which wind 
power can be used. So cheap and univer- 
sal a motive power as the wind, must come 
into very general use, with the improved 
appliances for regulating, stopping, start- 
ing, &c., which render tne machine quite 
akin to the steam engine and the water 
wheel. 

Labor-saving machines of all Ijinds are 
rapidly coming into universal use in this 
country, and he who would keep up with 
the spirit of the age should see to it that 
the great natural sources of power which 
are available almost everywhere, are not 
allowed to waste their energies on the 
" desert air," but are set to turning the 
wheels of civilization and working out 
welfare for mankind. See card, page 19,

TO THEIR SELF-REGULATING, STORM-DEFYING WIND MILL, 

AS A. LABOK, SAVINGS POWER, 

For pumping water. This, all allow to be one of the most tedious operations of 
farm labor, and hundreds of farmers might, and would keep more stock, were it not for 
the drudgery of pumping water by hand. By this invaluable labor saving machine, at 
an insignificant cost, the whole business may now be given over to the sport of the idle 
winds, which sweep over every farm, free as the air you breathe. 

"We are fuUy prepared to sell, erect and warrant our machines, and adapt them to all 
possible situations, so as to give durable and perfect satisfaction, and make the purchas- 
er happy. READ THE TESTIMONIALS PRINTED BELOW. We have many 
more like them, and if you still doubt, write us the depth of well, quantity of water de- 
sired, height necessary for the mill, and all particulars, and see if we will not put you 
up a Mill on trial, till you have a chance to test it, on your own premises, and be satisfi- 
ed that we tell you the <r«<A. Send for circulars, prices, and further particulars. We 
can give you what you need. 

THEY PUMP FOR CILEESXl FACTORIES. 

DuKHAMYiLLE, N. Y., July 4, 1865. 
To the Empire Wind Mill Manufacturing Co.— Gentlemen .-—Your Mill that I have had 
in use since the first day of May, has proved itself quite equal to all that you claim for 
it. I think you can claim one thino; more for the use of your Mill; that is, the raising 
of water for the manufacturing of Cheese. The two months' experience I have had with 
the Mill in manufacturing cheese in a factory of seven hundred cows, proves conclu- 
sively that one of your Mills may be relied on to raise water for a factory of any number 
of cows that may be desired. There has been but three days since the first of May but 
that the Mill has pumped all the water desired for cooling the milk and other necessary 
uses connected with my factory. The Mill has pumped on an average, one hundred 
barrels per day, and much of the time could have raised twice the amount if desired. — 
The manner in which the Mill regulates itself during high winds, is sufficient to recom- 
mend it to any one of observation. Yours truly, 

* F. FOSTER. 

Tli^y Megulate themselves in Seavy Galea of Wind. 

Potsdam, N. Y., December 25, 1864. 
Mr. J. W. Truesdell,— Dear Sir .•—■Yoars o{ the 18th wsis duly received. I have care- 
fully looked over your line, and in reply, would say, that the Empire Wind Mill, in my 
opinion, is the greatest invention of the age. I have run the Mill constantly ever since 
it was put up— that is to say, a portion of every twenty-four hours. I have a large farm 
destitute of living water, and a stock of cows from sixty toeighty, besides other stock. 
My well is thirty feet deep. I do not run the pump all the time— say upon an average of 
one and a half and two hours per day, which gives my stock all the water they require. 
In a fair wind, the Mill will pump from eight to ten gallons of water per minute, and I 
think will average about seventy-five to one hundred barrels of water per day. I have 
not paid out one cent for repairs, and the only expense attending its use is a little oil on 
the machinery once or twice a week. It will run with less wind than I expected, and 
some of my neighbors say that they have seen it running when the wind did not blow 
any. But that is not so ; yet it is a very still time that it does not run sufficient to do my 
work. As to our County, it is large and level, and it may well be termed the valley of 
the St. Lawrence. We Farmers usually keep dairies, and must have water, and in my 
opinion the Empire Wind Mill will be extensively used in this section. As to a gale of 
wind injuring the Mill, I do not think it possible, for last summer we had a gale that 
unroofed several houses and barns, swept down fences, and blew down forests of timber 
that had stood for centuries. My Mill was running at the time, and was not injured in 
the least. I have hastily written the above, and if I have omitted to answer all your in- 
quiries, please write me Again.

WAYNE COUNTY. 



THIS COUNTY, named in honor of the illustrious 
patriot, Gen. Anthony Wayne, was formed from Ontario and Seneca, 
April 11, 1823. It lies west of the center of the State, and is cen- 
trally distant 171 miles from Albany, and contains 624 square 
miles. Its northern border is washed by the waters of Lake Onta- 
rio. Joining it on the east is Cayuga, on the west Monroe, and on 
the south Ontario and Seneca counties. A series of bluffs from 25 
to 75 feet high, extends along the lake shore ; and from their sum- 
mits, the surface rises in gradual slopes to the lake ridge, 4 to 5 
miles distant. This ridge is 50 to 200 feet wide on the top, and 
about 200 feet above the lake. A road extends along the summit, 
through the entire length of the county, running in a due east and 
west course, known as the Ridge road. The ridge declines toward 
the east, and upon the east border of the county it can scarcely 
be traced. Its declivity upon the south is 8 to 20 feet ; and from 
its foot, the surface gradually slopes upward to the surface of the 
limestone ridge, which extends east and west through the county, 
a little north of the center, and forms the water-shed between Lake 
Ontario and the Clyde River. 

The summit of the ridge is 140 feet above the lake ridge, 340 
feet above the lake, and is about three miles wide. It is highest 
upon the west border of the county, and gradually declines toward 
the east. This peculiar formation is accounted for by the theory 
that the low regions through the north and central parts of the 
county were once covered by the waters of the lake, and that the 
limestone ridge was a long bar, or point, extending into the lake 
from the west. From its southern edge the surface gradually de- 
clines to Clyde River, and slopes upward from the river to the 
south line of the county. South of the limestone ridge are num- 
erous drift ridges extending north and south, and from one- fourth 
to one and a half miles in length. The declivities are usually very 
steep, and the summits 40 to 100 feet above the surrounding sur- 
face. They usually end in an abrupt declivity toward the north. 



22 WAYNE COUNTY. 



but gradually decline toward the south. They are composed of 
clay, sand and gravel, and seem to be deposits from great currents 
of water, or depositions of the drift period. Considerable marshy 
land extends along Clyde and Seneca Rivers, and also through the 
county, north of the lake ridge. Ganargwa, or Mud Creek, enters 
the south-west corner of the county, fror6. Ontario, flowing in an 
irregular, but generally easterly course, to Lyons, where it unites 
with the Canandaigua Outlet, and forms Clyde River — named by 
Wm. McNab, a Scotchman — which continues eastward to the 
east bounds of the county, .where it discharges its waters into the 
Seneca River. At an early day Clyde River was navigable as far 
as Lyons, and was a link in the great chain of western travel. — 
These streams receive from the north. West Red Creek, East Red 
Creek and Black Creek, and from the sQuth, numerous small 
brooks. The streams flowing into Lake Ontario are Bear, Deer, 
Davis, Salmon, Thomas, Wolcott, and Big and Little Red Creeks. 
First, Second and Third Creeks flow into Great Sodus Bay. The 
principal indentations upon Lake Ontario are Great Sodus, East, 
Port and Blind Sodus Bays. Great Sodus Bay forms an excellent 
harbor. Crusoe Lake, in the south-east corner, is the only consid- 
erable body of water. The streams, in their course through the 
drift depositions and lake ridge, have usually worn deep ravines. 
Within more recent periods, considerable changes have been 
wrought by the action of present streams of water, and the wasting 
agencies of the atmosphere and frost. From these are derived 
marl, alluvium, and the greater part of the soils. The thickness 
of the rock strata is generally determined by its outcrop along the 
ravines of the streams, and by Artesian Wells, which have been 
sunk to considerable depths in different parts of the county. One 
at Little Sodus to a depth of 400 feet, producing a weak brine ; one 
at Clyde, the same depth, producing weak brine and inflammable 
gas ; and another at Savannah to a depth of 250 feet, also produc- 
ing a weak brine. / 

The lowest rock in the county is the Medina Sandstone, appearing 
upon the lake, and in the ravines near it, which is extensively quar- 
ried for building stone. It is soft when first taken from the quar- 
ry, but hardens upon exposure to the atmosphere. It occupies a 
strip with an average width of two miles, being widest at the west. 
Next above this is the Clinton group of limestone and shales, ex- 
tending to the foot of the limestone ridge. Next above this is the 
Niagara limestone, forming the summit ridge and occupying a strip 
about 3 miles in width. South of this is the Onondaga salt group, 
of red and green shales, and gypsum, extending to the south bor- 
der, and occupying nearly one-half of the county. The rocks are 
mostly covered by thick deposits of drift, and are only exposed in 
the ravines of the streams. Shells, marl and muck, are found in 



WAYNE COUNTY. 23 



large quantities in the marshy regions. Weak brine and sulphur 
springs are found in various localities in the Medina sandstone, 
and the red shales of the Onondaga salt group. A vein of iron ore 
330 feet wide, and 18 to 20 inches thick, runs through the northern 
part of the county. In Ontario it is only from 3 to 6 feet below 
the surface, while in Wolcott, in the eastern part, it is about 14 
feet below the surface. It supplies the various furnaces in the 
county, and has contributed much to the growth and prosperity of 
the northern towns, where it is excavated. The soil derived from 
the drift deposits is generally a sandy or gravelly loam, with an 
occasional intermixture of clay. The soil along the lake shore, 
principally derived from the disintegration of Medina sandstone, is 
a reddish, sandy loam. At the foot of the mountain ridge, both 
north and south, is a strip of very productive clay loam. In the 
valley of Clyde River the soil is principally a gravelly loam and 
alluvium. The marsh lands, when drained, are covered deep with 
a rich, vegetable mold, which developes into the most- fertile soil in 
the county. Along the borders of Lake Ontario there are quite 
extensive tracts of clay and argillaceous earth, with but a slight 
superstratum of mold. The whole, however, may be pronounced 
a very excellent tract for the various products of agriculture. 

Agriculture, which forms the chief pursuit, has rapidly improved 
under the general and progressive exertions of hardy industry, and 
the enlightened efforts of men of wealth, talent, and influence. — 
There are few portions of the Stat^ that display more of agricultu- 
ral opulence than the entire extent of this county, a tract of coun- 
try abounding alike with superior richness and fertility of soil, and 
most elegant prospective views. Indeed, there is probably no 
county in the State that offers better inducements to a farming 
community. The people are generally well aware of this fact, 
which is attested by the extensive improvements and luxuries with 
which they have surrounded themselves as the reward of thrift and 
industry ; and there is no section of the State where the interests 
of each are so intimately connected with the interests of the whole. 
Here we fail to see, except in a few isolated cases, that striking 
contrast, so painfully manifest in large manufacturing communities, 
between the rich and poorer classes. The wealth of the country 
seems to be more uniformly divided among the majority. This 
County displays much of that element of free independence, so 
characteristic of the North, which is the result only of intelligence 
and industry, and having a tendency to diffuse among them a com- 
mendable spirit of liberality. 

The agricultural products, in the order of importaiaee, are grain- 
growing, stock-raising, dairying, and wool-growing. Fruit is ex- 
tensively cultivated, and has become one of the most important of 
the agricultural products of the county, which is peculiarly adapted 



24 WAT2^£J COUNTY. 



to the growth of every variety of fruit common to this climate, 
especially that part bordering upon Lake Ontario, and extending 
from Niagara river to the Oswego. Peaches have been made a 
speciality, but within the past few years, they have failed almost 
entirely in the eastern section of the county. In the western part, 
however, they continue to produce an average crop. There are 
but few portions of the State that excel this county in the <j[uality 
and quantity of fruit, and other agricultural products annually 
shipped to eastern markets. A large quantity of dried fruit is 
annually prepared. Peppermint and tobacco are raised along the 
valley of Mud Creek ; the latter, however, to a very limited extent 
at present. At Lyons, in this county, is one of the largest estab- 
lishments for purifying essential oils in the world. 

The county seat is located at the village of Lyons, near the center 
of the county. The Court House is a fine cut stone building, stand- 
ing on a rise of ground, fronting Church street. It has an Ionic 
portico, and is surmounted by a large dome. The first Court 
House was a brick edifice, erected soon after the organization of the 
county. It was superceded in 1856, by the present structure, built 
of Lockport lime-stone, at an expense of fifty thousand dollars. The 
building committee of the present Court House were John Adams, 
Stephen Marshall, and F. B. Cornwell. The first officers of the 
county, were John S. Talmadge, First Judge; Hugh Jameson, 
Sheriff; Wm. H. Adams, District Attorney ; Isaiah J. Richardson, 
County Clerk ; and John S. Taftnadge, Surrogate. The Jail is a 
commodious stone building, in the western part of the village. It 
contains rooms for the Jailor's residence, and is one of the best 
arranged and conducted establishments of the kind in the State. 
The County Clerk's office is a fire proof building, fronting Pearl 
street, a little south of the Court House. The Poor House is situa- 
ted upon a farm of one hundred and ninety-five acres, one and a 
half miles west of the Court House. 

The whole number of paupers in Poor House on the 15th of 
Oct. 1865, was, 83

Five weekly and one monthly newspapers are published in the 
county. 

1. The LYONS REPUBLICAN, published by Wm.T. Tinsley, 
was first published as the Palmyra Whig, in Feb. 1838, by Wm. 
N. and Samuel Cole. It was removed to Lyons by Wm, N. Cole, 
and its name changed to The Wayne County Whig. In the fall of 
1850, it passed into the hands of Williams & Gavit. In the spring 
of 1852, they sold it to Silas A. Anderson, who continued it a few 
months, and sold it to Wm. Van Marter; and in Nov. of the same 
year, it passed into the hands of Rodney L. Adams. In Sept. 1856 
its name was changed to The Lyons Republican; and April 30, 
1859, Mr. Adams sold it to Wm. T. Tinsley, its present publisher, 
who enlarged it in 1866 to an eight column paper. It is the cen- 
tral organ of Wayne County Republicanism, and has the largest 
circulation of any paper in the county. 

2. THE WAYNE DEMOCRATIC PRESS, published at Lyons, 
by Wm. Van* Camp, was first issued at Palmyra, in 1855, It was 
removed to Lyons the same year. This is the central organ of 

Wayne County Democracy, and has a large circulation. Mr. Van 
Camp served his apprenticeship in the old Wayne Sentinel Office, 
where the Mormon Bible was printed. He set a good share of the 
type for that book. 

3. THE PALMYRA COURIER, published by E. S. Averill, 
was commenced by the same name, May 28, 1843, by Fredric 
Morley, It passed into the hands of J. C. Bennett, who changed 
its name to The Palmyra Democrat. It was published again as 

the Palmyra Courier, by Benedict, from about 1851, to '54. 

Mr. Benedict sold it to Beebe, and in a short time afterwards 

it passed into the hands of A. E. Averill, who changed its name to 
The Palmyra American, and subsequently again to The Palmyra 
Courier, under which name Mr. Averill still continues to publish 
it. 

4. THE NEWARK WEEKLY COURIER, published by B. 
LI, Randolph, was commenced at Newark, in June 1838, by David 
M. Keeler, as The Wayne Standard. In Aug. 1839, it was sold to 
Gen, Barney T. Partridge, J. P. Bartle, and S. Culver, who changed 
its name to The New uEgis, Stephen Culver, editor. In Jan. 1840, 

it was sold to Norton, and discontinued the following May. 

In July following it was revived as The Wayne Standard, by D. 
M. Keeler, and published until 1843, when it passed into the Imnds 
of H. L. Winants; and in about one year it was again discontinued. 
It was revived soon after, as The Newark Courier, by David Fair- 
field. It was successively published by Wm. K. Creague, and B. 
F. Jones, as The Newark Journal ; and in 1854 by G. D. A. Bridg- 
man, who changed its name to The Newark Whig. In Sept. 1856, 
it passed into the hands of C. F. White, who changed its name to 



WAYNE COVNTY. 27 



The Newarh Weekly Courier. It subsequently passed into the 
hands of B. H. Randolph, who still continues its publication, 

5. THE CLYDE TIMES was first published in 1844, by B. 

Frazee, as the Clyde Eagle. It was successively published by 

Dryer, Stephen Salisbury, and in 1847, by Rev. Chas. G. Ackly, 
and Wm. Tompkins, who changed its name to The Clyde Tele- 
graph. It subsequently passed into the hands of Rev. W. W. 
Stroiker, and soon after to Wm. R. Fowle, and in a short time it 
was discontinued. The Clyde Industrial Times was commenced in 
Feb. 1850, by Payn and Smith. It soon passed into the hands of 
Joseph A. Payn, who changed its name in 1851, to The Clyde 
Weekly Times. It subsequently passed into the hands of Jas. M. 
Scarritt, who changed its name to The Clyde Times, and by whom 
it is still published. 

6. THE COMMERCIAL PRESS, published at Pulteneyville, 
by John M. Reynolds, is a monthly paper. 

The following obsolete papers have been published in the 
county : — 

The Palmyra Register, the first paper in the county, was com- 
menced Nov. 26, 1817, by Timothy C. Strong. It was continued 
under various titles until 1823, when it was published as The West- 
ern Farmer and Canal Advocate, and passed into the hands of 
Pomeroy Tucker who changed its name to The Wayne Sentinel. 
It was afterwards published by Wm. N. Cole, in 1860, but has 
since been discontinued. The Lyons Republican was commenced 
Aug. 3, 1821, by George Lewis, and was discontinued in Feb. 
1822. The Lyons Advertiser was commenced May 31, 1822, by 
Hiram T. Day. It underwent various changes in name and pub- 
lishers. It was published as The Wayne County Gazette, by 
Ephraiia S. Whitney; as The Lyons Argus by E. J. and W. W. 
Whitney ; The Lyons Gazette by Barker and Chapman ; The 
Wayne Co. Patriot and as The Western Argus by Chapman and 
Chapin, and Ashley & Co., and by the same name by Charles 
Poucher. In 1841 it was changed to The Lyons Gazette, and pub- 
lished by Russell, from 1849 to '53, when it was sold to 

Wm. Van Camp, and in 1855 or '56 it was merged in the Wayne 
Democratic Press. The Palmyra Freeman was commenced March 
11, 1828, by D. D. Stephenson. It soon after passed into the 
hands of J. A. Hadley, who removed the press to Lyons and 
changed the name to The Countryman. Myron Holley became 
connected with it as associate editor. In 1831 it was suspended 
for a time, and afterward resumed as The Lyons American, by 
Myron Holley. In 1835 it was published by Wm. H. Childs. — 
In 1836, it was removed to Clyde and published as The Clyde Ga- 
zette, by Dennis Cord until 1838. The Reflector, mo., was com- 
menced at Palmyra in 1828 by O. Dogberry, Jr. It was discon- 



28 WAYIfU COUNTY. 



tinued in 1830. The Newarh Republican was commenced at New- 
ark in Nov., 1829, by Jeremiah O. Balch. It was discontinued in 
1831. The Clyde Standard was published about six months in 
1830, by E. P. Moon. The Western Spectator and Wayne Ad- 
vertiser was commenced at Palmyra Jan. 9, 1830, by Luther How- 
ard and Erastus Shepard. In 1831 its name was changed to The 
Spectator and Anti-Masonic Star, which was removed to Eochester 
the same year and merged in The Anti-Masonic Enquirer. The 
Northern Methodist Protestant was published by an association at 
Clyde in 1849, Rev. W. W. Stroiker, editor. The Wayne Banner 
was published at Wolcott in 1850, by John Mclntyre, and was re- 
moved to Clyde and merged in The Industrial Times, on the first 
issue of the latter paper. The Farming Mirror was commenced 
at Lyons in July, 1853, by R. L. Adams & Co., and published one 
year. 

The Erie Canal was opened through the county in 1822, and ex- 
tends through the southern tier of towns. Along its course are 
the most populous and thriving villages of the county, though no 
part of it is densely populated. The enlarged canal crosses Seneca 
River on the east border of the county, on an aqueduct built upon 
31 arches of 22 feet span each. It crosses Mud Creek a little west 
of Lyons, upon an aqueduct of five arches, and again crosses the same 
stream, north of Palmyra, upon an aqueduct of three arches. The 
direct branch of the N. Y. C. R. R., opened through the county in 
1854, between Syracuse and Rochester, extends along the course 
of the canal, through Savannah, Galen, Lyons, Arcadia, Palmyra 
and Macedon. In 1827, a charter was obtained for building a ship 
canal from the Erie Canal, at Montezuma, to Great Sodus Bay. — 
Surveys were made but no work was ever done. A new charter 
was obtained by John Greig, of Canandaigua, in 1836 ; and anoth- 
er by Gen. Wm. H. Adams, in 1841. The route named in the 
last charter is from Sodus Bay to the Clyde River, a little west of 
Clyde, and in that channel continue to Cayuga Lake. The natural 
advantages for niaking a canal by this route was sufficiently appa- 
rent to the lamented late Gen. Wm. H. Adams, and an association 
of prominent men and heavy capitalists. A vast body of earth 
has been removed, by a process of washing the earth out of the 
intended channel ; but before the project could be consummated, 
as commenced, financial crisis and death occurred among the 
prominent men of the association, and the charter expired. Gen. 
Adams, in his extraordinary perseverance, succeeded in getting it 
renewed, and again commenced the work vigorously in 1847 and 
'48. Then, as before, unfavorable circumstances occurred to pre- 
vent its completion, amongst which was a delay in the action of 
the Erie Canal Board in changing the location of a lock to facilitate 
the connection of the Sodus with the Erie Canal ; pending all of 



WAYNE COUNTY. 29 



which the renewed charter expired. The right of way is secured 
to the heirs of Gen. Adams, and efforts are being made by them 
for a further renewal. The blood energy of the sire is sufficiently 
prominent in the son to foreshadow his perseverance in this wor- 
thy cause. The efforts of Gen. Adams has reclaimed thousands of 
acres of land, by a ditch, that will be a monument of a mind press- 
ing for a valuable public benefit, when the present generations of 
his opponents, with their selfish propensities, are taking their rest 
in silence that would have benefited their country if practiced while 
living. 

Meetings of individuals have been held, respectable in numbers 
and prominence, and efforts made to organize a Sodus and Clyde 
R. R. Co., but clashing interests of selfish individuals so crushed 
the project that no further progress was made than to procure a 
survey and estimate, which was in every feature favorable, but in- 
terested local parties could not agree upon the terminus at either 
end, and those who would have invested, withheld doing so for 
want of a starting point or a terminus. 

Thus the fates continue against this Great Sodus Bay, safe har- 
bor, and its connection with the Erie Canal and N. Y. C. R. R. at 
Clyde ; and the last act was the recent appropriations made by 
Congress for the ports of Lake Ontario. We cannot fail to see 
the inappropriateness of favors, when this great bay and its little 
rival are compared — one, a great safe harbor with almost an entire' 
natural entrance for lake vessels, with the lighthouse washed away, 
and piers and docks destroyed, and having the least appropriation ; 
and the other an inland pond, Unless a bar is dredged to connect 
the lake and bay waters visibly. It is natural to suppose that po- 
litical policy and illy expended capital commits these errors, thro' 
men of less honest care of public interest thasi selfish motives. 

The Sodus Point and Southern R. R. was incorporated in April, 
1852. The road was to extend from Sodus Bay to Hall's Corners, 
in Ontario Co. The route was surveyed, and some grading done, 
but owing to the financial difficulties of 1857, the work was aban- 
doned, and has never been recommenced. 

The nine western towns in this county belonged to the Pulteney 
Estate; the east part, including Savannah, Galen, and portions of 
Wolcott and Butler, constituted a portion of the Military Tract. 
The intermediate portion, except the three south tiers of lots in 
Rose, were compensation lands granted to the Pulteney Estate for 
the gore between the old and new pre-emption. 

In the obscure background of history we find the sons of the for- 
est, the Iroquois, the general term applied to the " Six Nations," 
ranging in lordly freedom through their wild domains. Next, the 
French claimed the command of this wilderness. At length they 
gave way to British power. After the Revolution, the treaty of

1783 left it in possession of the victorious colonies. But the indis- 
tinctness of the original charts involved Massachusetts and New 
York in a sharp controversy, each State insisting upon its claim to 
this part of the western territory. This dispute was submitted for 
decision to commissioners, appointed by the different States, who 
met at Hartford, Dec. 16, 1786, and was settled by a compact be- 
tween the two States, in which New York " ceded, granted, released 
and confirmed to Massachusetts, all the estate, right, title, and pro- 
perty, (the right of government, sovereignty and jurisdiction ex- 
cepted,) which the former had to a large territory west of the Mili- 
tary Tract, comprising the whole part of country through which 
the Genesee runs, from its source to where it flows into Lake On- 
tario." The amount of land was estimated at about six million 
acres. By the Legislature of Massachusetts, this district, in 1788, 
was granted to Oliver Phelps and Nathaniel Gorham, for the sum 
of $100,000, and from that time became private property. Phelps 
and Gorham the same year opened a land office in Canandaigua. 

Besides this Massachusetts Reserve, there was the Military 
Tract. These constituted the two general divisions of Western 
New York. The Military Tract was reserved by an act of the 
New York Legislature, Jan. 25, 1782, to be distributed among the 
officers and soldiers of New York State who served in the Revolu- 
tion. It was situated directly east of the Massachusetts Reserve, 
or the Phelps and Gorham Purchase. The western line of the Mil- 
itary Tract was drawn from the mouth of As-so-ro-dus Creek, (or 
Great Sodus Bay, a con^action of the Indian name,) south, along 
the western shore of Seneca Lake, and east by a line drawn from the 
most westerly boundary of Oneida, or Tuscarora County, on the 
Oneida Lake, through the most westerly inclination of the west 
bounds of Oneida and Tuscorora territory, south, by a line drawn 
due east from the southern extremity of Seneca Lake. The tract 
included 1,680,000 acres, and embraces the present Counties of On- 
ondaga, Cayuga, Seneca and Cortland, the greater part of Tomp- 
kins and a small part of Oswego and Wayne, 

The earliest white inhabitants were hunters and trappers. The 
first permanent settlements were made in 1789, at Palmyra, under 
the auspices of Gen. John Swift, agent of a company of settlers 
from Connecticut ; and at Lyons, under Charles Williamson, agent 
for the Pulteney Estate. The name of John Swift figures con- 
spicuously in the early settlement of this county, being identified 
with every effort to advance its political, social and religious inter- 
ests.* Mr. Charles Williamson built roads from Palmyra and 
Lyons to Sodus Point ; upon these the early settlers mostly lo- 
cated. He also laid out a city at Sodus Bay, which has not yet 
been built.

From 1790 to '94, colonies came in from Rhode Island, Long 
Island and Maryland. The latter brought with them several slaves ; 
but it was soon found that slave labor was unprofitable. The set- 
tlements did not progress with great rapidity for several years, 
owing to the diseases which prevailed. The fear of Indian hostili- 
ties, and of British invasion during the war of 1812, greatly re- 
tarded settlement. On the return of peace, settlers began to ar- 
rive in considerable ninnbers, principally from New England and 
Eastern New York. The completion of the Erie Canal gave a new 
impulse to immigration ; and in a few years the flourishing villages 
of Lyons, Clyde, Palmyra and Newark were built up along its 
course. The N. Y. C. R, R., built through the county in 1852-53, 
greatly benefited it, and enhanced the value of the lands. 

Few now survive of the adult emigrants who, up to the begin- 
ning of the present century, pitched their tents in the then howling 
wilderness of " Ga-nar-gweh," (the aboriginal name of the tract,) 
now transfomed to the blossoming gardens, the cultivated fields, 
and the happy " homes" of Wayne "County. The reminiscences 
disclosed in the life of these early settlers are rife with interesting 
incidents, which have been snatched from the fleeting memories of 
the past, for the contemplation, perhaps emulation, of present and 
future generations. Such reviews are designed to quicken our 
patriotism and piety, and give new strength to the roots which bind 
us to the soil and the principles of our progenitors. Their works 
have left an impress upon the annals of time, like footprints on the 
sandy sea-shore, which bear to us rich lessons of wisdom and in- 
struction. They were actuated by the same motives and passions 
which influence their descendants ; and the same political, social 
and religious differences were rife then as now. It will perhaps 
present an interesting contrast of early and latter times, to men- 
tion an incident remembered by but few of the present inhabitants 
of the district where it transpired. Politics ran high about the 
years 1807-8, under Jefferson's administration, and the "federal " 
and " democratic " parties became greatly embittered in their divi- 
sions. The school was disturbed by these party animosities, even 
the boys in attendance espousing the quarrel, siding according to 
parental classification or individual sentiment. The trustee elec- 
tions, and the teacher appointments, were all influenced by the po- 
litical "■ divisions, and the " federals " being in the ascendency of 
numbers, carried the district exclusively for their own side. It was 
resented by the "democrats," who in consequence procured a sever- 
ance of the district, and the erection of a "democratic school 
house," with " democratic teachers." Such an example of partizan 
spirit by these good fore-fathers, might well admonish their sons 
to patience and forbearance in the evanescent party strifes annu- 
ally occurring at the present day. 



32 ■ WATJ^H COUNTY. 



It was customary for the early settlers to take observations on 
"Winter Green Hill," of the marks, at different points, of the 
impressions made by civilized man. Seventy years have now 
passed away, and could the same men stand on the same eminence, 
how striking would be the contrast of the surrounding country at 
the present time to its pristine wildness ! The dark and lofty 
forest has given way to the waving harvest. Where went up the 
smoke of the wigwam, now rises the elegaAfc mansion. Instead of 
the howl of the woif, are now heard the cheerful sounds of a busy 
and happy community. But what imparts the greatest interest to 
the recollection of things as they were, is the comparison presented 
by the canal, the railroad, the telegraph, the churches, the schools, 
the printing-presses, the edifices of industry and domestic peace, 
the .densely populated streets, (comparatively,) the busy hum of 
commerce and trade, and the monuments of improvement and civ- 
ilization generally, which now mark the same locality. Before us 
are evidences of men and agencies, to whom we may apply the 
words of inspiration : — " The wilderness and the solitary place 
shall be glad for them." There are some things in the early his- 
tory of this county, which should be regretted and shunned. Ste- 
phen Durfee, (one of the early settlers,) used to say, "the first curse 
that came among us was whiskey." It was the ruin of many of the 
early settlers and their sons. " I," said the old veteran, " made the 
first move in the cause of temperance. - In 1811, 1 raised my house 
without a drop of intoxicating drink," Afterwards, the " Eriends " 
adopted strict temperance as a part of their discipline. Many a 
strong man has been cast down by this enemy. It is a painful fact 
that so noble a patriot as John Swift should be beguiled of his dis- 
cretion, and fall a prey to the enemy through so insidious a foe. 
We would indeed go backward with a mantle of charity ; but as we 
look forward we inquire, " Shall the sword devour forever f My 
readers, you move over the graves of your fathers. ■ Do you cher- 
ish their virtnes ? Will you make as good a bequest to posterity 
as they did 1 You, like they, are writing history, which others will 
read. These hills and valleys will remain, with the indelible im- 
press of your works written on their rugged surface. Your pos- 
terity will turn, upon their Thanksgiving days, upon your memo- 
ry ; and they will come on pilgrimages to look at the humble 
stones which mark your last resting place. Shall the review stir 
the noble sentiment, the high resolve to promote intelligence, ex- 
tend liberty — ^to know God — to save the world ? 

Two of the most notable events that have transpired in the his- 
tory of this county, from their magnitude and importance, is the 
rise of Mormonism in Palmyra, and the origin of Spiritualism in 
Arcadia, for full account of which see respective towns. 

During the late four years struggle for the life of the Republic, 



WAYNE COUNTY. 33 



Wayne County was fully represented by the many noble sons who 
fought and bled for their country's sake on Southern soil. It was 
our intention to have presented a complete statement of the dispo- 
sition of the troops from this county, but owing to incompleteness 
of the military records, during the early stages of the war, it was 
found impracticable, and the census returns are evidently so far 
short of the truth, in regard to number of enlistments, as well as 
other details concerning military matters, that it was considered 
advisable to omit its publication altogether. Suffice it, that every 
town and every neighborhood, sent forth of their numbers a goodly 
portion of their fathers, sons or brothers, the bone and sinew of the 
land — and, after four years of fearful war ; after one of the great- 
est struggles the world ever knew, success crowned both right and 
might, deciding that " This Union is one and inseparable,^'' and that 
freedom and universal liberty belong to all who dwell in this great 
country — where- good and bad, the great or poor, and oppressed of 
every land, find shelter and a home. Peace, smiling peace, re- 
turned to bless us, and those who outlived the great fight returned 
home, their breasts filled with rapture, for it was their day of hope 
and pride. But ah, how many did not return ! Peace did not 
bring joy to the hearts bowed down with grief for the loved and

as such by a grateful country. O, may the diflferences now exist- 
ing between the people of this country be speedily adjusted ; ,ind 
may vv^e all again become a united and happy people ; and may

GAZETTEER OE TOWNS. 



AMCAJyiA was formed from Lyons, Feb. 15, 1825. It 
lies on the south border of the county, a little west of the center. 
Its surface is a rolling region, broken by drift ridges. Mud Creek 
flows east through the town, north of the center, and receives several 
small streams as tributaries. The soil is a sandy, gravelly loam, 
mixed with clay on the hills. Gypsum is found in the south-west, 
and marl in the centre. There are 25 school districts in the town, 
employing 58 teachers, (15 male, and 43 female,) with an average 
daily attendance of 647 pupils. The valuation of school property 
in 1866, was $21,750. The population of the town, taken from the 
census of 1865, was 5,253; area 30,944 acres. 

NewarTc, (p. v,) including ^rcac?m, (p. v.) in the south part, was 
incorporated July 21, 1853, as Newark. It is on the Erie Canal, 
and is a station on the direct branch of the N. Y. C. R. R. The 
village is about one mile south of the depot, and is very pleasantly 
located, the streets being regularly laid out and beautifully shaded 
by well preserved ornamental trees. The Newark Weekly Courier 
is published by B. Howe Randolph. The village contains a union 
school, with nine teachers, and has an average yearly attendance of 
300 scholars; 10 churches, viz: 1 Dutch Methodist, 1 Methodist 
Episcopal, 2 Baptist, 1 Dutch Reformed, 1 Christian, 1 Presbyter- 
ian, 1 Roman Catholic, 1 Episcopalian, and 1 Universalist ; 2 banks, 
2 flouring mills, 2 tanneries, 2 furnaces, and nearly 3,000 inhabit- 
ants. K number of years ago, the building of a l.'pge collegiate 
institute was commenced on the summit of thfe large hill at East 
Newark, but owing to trouble in collecting subscriptions, the build- 
ing was discontinued after being raised to the height of two stories. 
The difficulty since being arranged, the work has recently been re- 
commenced, and with a prospect of early completion. When done, 
Newark can boast of one of the finest school buildings in the State. 
The Sodus Point and Southern Railroad, which was to extend from 
Sodus Bay to Hall's Corners, in Ontario County, was incorporated 
in April, 1852. The route was surveyed, and in various places, sev-^

eral miles west, graded. During the financial crisis in 1857, the 
work was suspended, and has never been recommenced. Fairville, 
(p. v.) about five miles north of Newark, contains 2 churches, 
Methodist and Presbyterian, 1 tannery, a hotel, school-house and 
about 185 inhabitants. Marbletown, near the south-east corner, is 
a hamlet containing about 100 inhabitants, all farmers. Jessup's 
Corners and Hydeville are small hamlets ; the latter was the home 
of the Fox family, of "Rochester Rapping" notoriety. In this ob- 
scure place Spiritualism was born and nourished. 

The settlement of the town was commenced by Joseph Winters 
and B. Franklin in 1791. Gilbert Howell and Paul Reese, settled 
in 1795; Samuel Soverhill in 1798 ; Humphrey Sherman, Reuben 
Starks and John Miller, from Long Island, in 1800; and Ebenezer 
Smith soon after. Jacob, Philip and Isaac Lusk came in from Col- 
umbia County in 1806, and purchased one square mile of land, 
which is now occupied by the village of Newark. Caleb Tibbetts 
came in in 1807, with Stephen Aldridge, Henry Croags, and Cooper 
Culver. Dr. A. Hyde settled in 1810. The first death occurred in 
1792 — a child in the family of B. Franklin ; the first marriage in 

12^98, Hess and Amy Tibbetts. Hiram Soverhill, son of 

Samuel, was the first child born, in 1800. The first inn was kept 
by Stephen Aldridge, and the first store by J. P. Bartlett. The 
first church, (M. E.) was organized in 1805. J. Wesley Benton 
was the first settled minister, in 1806. 

A very noted event transpired in this town, in the vicinity of 
Hydeville, viz : the origin of modern Spiritualism, previously men- 
tioned. Margaret and Catharine Fox, and Elizabeth Fish, (a niece 
of the former girls,) were the first to discover an intelligence in the 
mysterious sounds known as the " rappings," on the night of March 
31, 1849. The father of the sisters was a blacksmith, reported to 
be honest and industrious, who pursued his trade, at that place. 
Those in the neighborhood who discard the idea of its spiritual ori- 
gin, afllirm that it w«,s simply a ruse between the girls to dupe their 
mother, who was said to be very superstitious, or to subject her to 
the imposition so commonly practised on the 1st of April ; and 
succeeding so well, they determined to initiate the whole family, 
and pursue their deception, at the expense of a credulous communi- 
ty, as a means of subsistence ; while those who adhere to the belief 
in its validity, or superhuman origin, as firmly deny the assertion. 
Be that as it may, they created considerable ext;itement in the vi- 
cinity of Hydeville by exhibitions of what they termed " spirit 
manifestations." The people came in large numbers, from all direc- 
tions, to witness this singular phenomena ; some to deprecate and 
others to investigate its merits. About a month after its inception, 
they moved to Rochester, being unable to accommodate the throng 
of cui'ious and eager spectators who daily visited them. At Roch- 



36 WATJS^E COUNTY. 



ester they gave public exhibitions in the halls at that place ; hence 
the name, " Rochester Rappings." The incredulity of the people 
was aroused, and a series of investigations instituted; some claim- 
ing for it a spiritual origin, but the majority pronouncing it a hum- 
bug or delusion. From this source the great body of Spiritualists 
originated, numbering millions of professed believers. If it be an 
evil, it is a gigantic one. It has steadily progressed until it has 
developed itself into an acknowledged science, and effectually over- 
come a most bitter opposition from every other religious sect, and 
from scientists, whose realms it has dared to intrude. It has dif- 
fused itself over almost every part of the civilized globe, and num- 
bers in its ranks some of the most learned and philosophical minds 
the world has ever produced. It has, and is still, agitating the 
minds of our most learned divines, whose rigid scrutiny it has chal- 
lenged from the first, and ingenuously threatens to dethrone and 
revolutionize the hitherto presumed security of theology. It is a 
question which demands the careful and earnest attention of every 
rational, thinking being, and if it be the insidious monster it is 
claimed to be, should be speedily denounced and discountenanced. 

BTJTLBn was formed from Wolco'tt, Feb. 26, 1826. It 
is the center town on the east border of the county. Its surface is 
diversified ; level in the south-east, and rising into ridges in the 
north-west. The highest point is Armstrong Hill — named from 
Hon. Thos. Armstrong, who held prominent positions in public 
offices, as Member of Assembly and U. S. Senator. The principal 
stream is Wolcott Creek, which rises in the north-east, and flowing 
in a circuitous com-se, leaves the town near the north-west corner. 
The soil in the valley is a gravelly loam, and on the hills it is gen- 
erally clay, with a tenacious sub-soil. Lime is manufactured in 
the north part to a limited extent. The population of the town, " 
from census of 1865, was 2,083 ; area 21,993 acres. It contains 15 , 
schools, in which 15 teachers are employed fof the season. The 
average attendance during the year 1866, was 254. The expenses 
for the support of schools during the same year was S2.504.20. 
Private schools are taught during the winter season, supported by 
individual effort. The Normal system of teaching has been uni- 
formly adopted throughout the entire county, great improvement 
having been made within the past few years. Much is owing to 
the untiring efforts of Dr. M. F. Sweeting, of South Butler, (who 
was the first School Commissioner in the county,) for this radical 
change. 

South Butler, (p. v.) on the south line, contains 4 churches : 1 
Baptist, 1 Disciple, 1 Methodist Episcopal and 1 Second Advent ; 
1 hotel, 1 steam flouring mill, 1 steam saw mill, 1 tannery, and 
other mechanical operations. It has three schools and about 450 



WAYJSri; COVl^TT. 37 



inhabitants. West Butler^ (p. o.) a little north of center, contains 
1 hotel, 1 school and about 60 inhabitants. Westbury, (p. v.) in 
north-east corner, partly in the town of Victory, Cayuga County, 
contains about 100 inhabitants. Butler Center contains 1 church 
(M. E.) and about 12 houses. 

Settlement was commenced in 1802. John Grand and Paul 
Wellman settled near the Center in 1807 ; also, Roger Olmstead, 
Henry Brunnel, Aaron Hoppin and Mrs. Bunce, previous to that 
time. Morris and Seth Craw came in in 1807 ; the former is still 
living in South Butler, and is 75 years old. Capt. Peter Mills and 
Wm. Hallettcame in in 1805, Abijah Moore in 1806, and Orastus 
Hubbard about the same time. Horace Peck came in in 1810 ; he 
died in the Fall of 1865, aged 77 years. Ranson Winans was the 
first child born. The first death was that of Jedediah Wheeler, in 
April, 1811. Jesse Olmstead built the first saw mill, at the Cen- 
ter. Morris Craw kept the first inn, in 1817. The first local min- 
ister was Caleb Mills. Rev. Antoinette L. Brown, the first woman 
ever regularly ordained in the State, was settled for several years 
over the Congregational Church at South Butler. 

GALEN' was formed from Junius, (Seneca Co.) Feb. 14, 
1812. It was formerly Township No. 27 of the Military Tract, 
and received its name from having been appropriated to the Medi- 
cal Department. Savannah was taken off" in 1824. It lies on the 
south border of the county, east of the center. Its surface is hilly 
in the east, but more level in the west. In the south-west is a large 
tract of swamp land. Clyde River — named by Wm. McNab, 
agent of the Hornby Estate, Geneva, — flows through the town from 
west to east, in a circuitous course. The soil is a rich, sandy and 
gravelly loam. There is more business, of a mercantile and me- 
chanical nature, carried on here than in any other town in the coun- 
ty, which, while it numerically increases its population, adds essen- 
tially to its material growth and prosperity. The products of the 
manufacturing and other mechanical interests of the town, afford 
employment and sustenance to about one-half the inhabitants. The 
remainder rely upon the fruits of agriculture. The N. Y. C. R. R. 
and the Erie Canal pass through the town, a little north of the cen- 
ter. The projected Sodus Canal — not yet completed — forms a 
junction with the Erie about the center of the town. There are 
19 schools, 1 high school included, employing 26 teachers, with an 
average yearly attendance of 702 scholars, costing $8,285.92 dur- 
ing the year 1866. The population of the town in 1865 was 5,314 ; 
area 35,299 acres. 

Clyde, (p. V.) near the center, on Clyde River, was incorporated 
May 2, 1835. This location was originally called "Block House," 



38 WAYJSTJS COTINTY. 



from a block house built here by Indian traders at an early day. 
During the Revolution it was converted into a "station," for smug- 
gling goods from Canada via Sod us Bay, by the Tories. After it 
had assumed the dimensions of a village, it was named "Lauraville," 
from Henrietta Laura, Countess of Bath, daughter and heiress of 
Sir William Pulteney. Its name was changed to Clyde in 1818. 
The canal passes through the village. It is also a station on the 
N. Y: C. R. R. It contains 6 churches : 1 Presbyterian, 1 Metho- 
dist, 1 Baptist, 1 Methodist Episcopal, 1 Episcopalian, and 1 Cath- 
olic ; 3 banks, 1 newspaper office, ( The Clyde Times) 1 window 
glass factory, 1 glass bottle factory, a distillery, steam flouring 
and saw mills, grain warehouses and elevators, 2 furnaces, &c., for 
manufacturing agricultural implements and heavy machinery, 2 
cooperages, a brewery, 2 paper mills, 4 malt houses, and 1 tannery. 
Population about 3,100. Clyde possesses more valuable commer- 
cial advantages, naturally, than belongs to most villages in West- 
ern New York. Surrounded by hundreds of square miles of pro- 
ductive soil, whose products find them the most convenient market, 
and in that market enterprising, competing capitalists, who are 
shrewd in commercial matters where immediate gain appears in 
favorable prospective ; but none of these as yet have been far-see- 
ing enough to make a successful move towards improving the more 
essential public advantages lying in store for capital and enterprise 
of a future day. 

This village is only ten miles from the navigable waters of Great 
Sodus Bay — the best harbor on the south shore of Lake Ontario — 
and the surface of the country between these points of suitable soil 
and easy grade for making a railroad cheaply, thus opening an ave- 
nue for a vast trade of coal, lumber, agricultural products, and va- 
rious other articles of commerce, that would naturally pass through 
this short and convenient connection, were it established. A com- 
pany was organized Jan. 22, 1853, with a capital of $150,000, to 
carry this work into execution ; but, owing to clashing interests of 
selfish individuals, the project was abandoned after a survey had 
been effected which pronounced it a feasible route. The natural 
advantages for making a canal by this route was sufficiently appa- 
rent to early attract the attention of prominent individuals, among 
whom was the late Gen. Wm. H. Adams. Charters were obtained 
and much work has been eflfected upon this enterprise, which is still 
being agitated by the heirs of Gen. Adams, (to whom the right of 
way has been secured,) but owing to a combination of unforeseen . 
events which have tended to retard its progress, the work still re- 
mains incomplete. 

The First National Paper Manufacturing Co. of Clyde, (Dar- 
win Calvin, President,) commenced building in the early part of 
Sept., 1866. They have recently commenced operations, and 



WAY^E COUNTY. 39 



the enterprise promises to be a success. The estimated product 
of the mill is nine tons of manilla wrapping paper per week. 
Their machinery and buildings are entirely new throughout. — 
The Clyde Paper Manufacturing Go's (Aaron Griswold, Presi- 
dent,) buildings and machinery are entirely new, having been com- 
pleted this year. The capacity of the mill is twelve tons of 
printing paper per week. The Company commenced making 
paper in Feb., 1867, The process of making straw paper is as 
follows : — About 95 per cent, of straw and 5 of manilla rope, arc 
cut fine, by a machine made for the purpose, preparatory to be- 
ing put into the bo-iler, or steeper, (usually capable of holding 
about 3,000 lbs.) where it remains from ten to twelve hours — 
the boiler being constructed so as to make about two revolutions 
})er minute. Soda-ash and lye are used to reduce the stock. — 
When it has sufficiently softened, it is put into a paper engine 
to convert it into pulp. The paper engine consists of a large 
vat about two and a half feet high, with a wheel constructed, in 
which are inserted thirty-six steel knives, making 175 revolutions 
per minute, which cuts the sti*aw very fine. It is thoroughly 
washed by water passing a brass cylinder sieve, or washer. It 
is subjected to this action about six hours, before being thorough- 
ly converted into pulp. It is now passed through a pipe insert- 
ed in the bottom of the engine, and conveyed to an agitator, 
from which it is pumped into a square box and run into vats, 
where the paper is first formed on brass beds or molds. From 
these it is conveyed, by means of a felt belt, through press roll- 
ers, thus pressing the water from the pulp. It is then passed 
through six large iron cylinders, or rollers, heated by steam. — 
This is called the drying process. It next passes through Calen- 
der Rollers, upon which an immense weight is brought to bear ; 
by this means it receives a fine glossy sui'fiice. From these it is 
wound upon reels, holding about 2100 feet each, from which it pass- 
es through a cutting machine, and cut into any size required. Tavo 
girls are employed to receive the paper and pile it as it passes from 
the cutter, after which it is counted and packed into quires, reams, 
and bundles. It is now ready for market. A coniposition of chlo- 
rine and other substances is used to bleach the paper while it is be- 
ing converted to pulp. Various ingenious mechanical devices are 
employed to facilitate its transfer from one part of the mill to the 
other, thereby dispensing with much manual labor in the different 
processes through which it passes. 

The Clyde Glass Works, owned by Messrs. Southwick and Reed, 
forms another important feature in the manufacturing interests of 
this busy village. This Company are engaged in the manufacture 
of bottles and window glass, each comprising different and separate 
departments. The composition used for each is the same, though 



40 WAYWE COUNTY. 



the process of making is entirely dissimilar. It is put into large 
crucibles — made of German clay, which are arranged in the furna- 
ces — every night, and worked out the following day. The cruci- 
bles are usually capable of holding 1000 lbs each. The glass is 
taken from the furnaces on pipes about four feet in length. The 
first process by which bottles are made is called marbling, being 
rolled on a marble slab, after which they are put into molds of 
whatever shape and size required, and blown into shape. The molds 
are constructed to work like a spring clamp, being operated entire- 
ly by the foot. The bottles are taken fjom the molds and broken 
from the blow pipe, when they are finished, or the rim put on, by 
applying glass from the crucibles. They are now placed in large 
annealing ovens, for tempering, where they remain about thirty-six 
hours, and are then taken to the packing room, where they are 
packed and stored ready for market. 

In the window glass factory the process is similar until after it is 
taken from the crucibles, when the mold is now dispensed with. 
It is blown into large cylindrical tubes about four feet long, and 
'eight or ten inches in diameter. This is a very difficult branch of 
the business, and requires much practice to become proficient, as 
the workmen are governed entirely by the eye, in making a per- 
fectly uniform tube. They are laid upon racks to cool, after which 
they are cut down the centre, and placed in a revolving carriage, 
or horizontal bed of clay, in a heated oven, where they remain a 
sufficient length of time to flatten out in sheets. They are again 
cooled, and removed to the cutting room, where they are cut into 
the required size, after which they are counted and packed, and are 
then ready to be shipped to market. The process is a simple, yet 
very beautiful one^ 

The Clyde Iron Works,formerly owned by Mr. A. S. Field, is now 
carried on by Messrs. Wood, Candler & Co., who have leased 
them of Mr. Field. The articles of manufacture are Plows and 
Cultivators, and a general assortment of agricultural implements. 
The principal market is in the county and the immediate vicinity. 
Messrs, Wood, Candler & Co. have increased their facilities for 
doing a general custom business. 

There are many other mechanical branches carried on which con- 
tribute materially to the growth and prosperity of the village. 
The broken down bridge was replaced in 1866 by an iron structure. 
From an analysis by Prof Hadley, of Geneva College, in 1844, 
the Mineral Springs at Clyde are composed of 

Muriate of soda, 55 grains. 

Muriate of lime,- 33 " 

Sulphate and muriate magnesia, 12 " 
It contains 288 grs. saline matter to the gallon.

Marengo, (p. v.) in the south part, contains a saw mill, tavern, 
and about 150 inhabitants. Lock Berlin, (p. v.) in the west part, 
on the canal, contains 1 church, (Meth.) and about 100 inhabitants. 
AngelVs Corners, in the south-east, and Meadville, in the east, on 
the canal, are hamlets. 

First settlement commenced by Laomi Beadle, in 1800 ; he is 
still living at Marengo, aged 84 years. Nicholas King, David 
Godfrey and Isaac Mills came the same year, and built the first 
house in town, a log cabin, on Military Lot No. 70. They moved 
their families into the town the following Spring, from Orange Co. 
N. Y. The first white family moved into town in 1801 ; J. Kings, 
David Creagher, from Md., Elias Austin and Capt. John Sherman, 
in 1804. Elias Austin is now living in Orleans Co., aged 87 years. 
Asaph Whittlesy settled in 1805. Isaac Godfrey was the first 
child born in town, Feb. 1, 1802; the first death that of David 
Godfrey, accidentally killed Oct. 13, 1801. Jabez Reynolds and 
Polly Mills formed the first marriage in 1805. In 1804 the Chan- 
nel was cut across the "Ox-bow" in Clyde River, (then Canandai- 
gua outlet,) to allow the passage of flat bottom boats above the 
"big wood reef," this stream being then the only passage for all 
heavy carriage from Oneida Lake and Schenectady to Palmyra. 

The first bridge was built across Clyde River, on Sodus St., in 
1810. First house built in village of Clyde, (of hewn logs) by 
Jonathan Melvin, in 1811 ; first town meeting held at house of 
Jonathan Melvin, in 1812. In March, 1814, a bear and three cubs 
were captured in the hollow of a large whitewood tree, within half 
a mile south of Clyde. Mr. Joseph Watson, now living at Clyde, 
participated in this exploit. James B. West kept the first store. 
In 1818, the Clyde Dam was erected ; and the first saw and grist 
mill was built by Maj. Fred A. De Zenz, During this year, the 
bridge built in 1810 was carried away by a flood or freshet. In 
1854 the Clyde Dam and Mills were taken down, and the N. Y. C. 
R. R. opened through the town. The first Church, (Presb.) was 
organized at Clyde, July 8, 1814. Charles Mosher was the first 
minister. Boring for salt to the depth of 400 feet has been made 
in the vicinity of Clyde, producing a weak brine, but not of suffi- 
cient strength to warrant its being worked. One of the wells emit- 
ted inflammable gas. The well was soon filled up. 

STJItOW was erected as a township from Wolcott, as "Port 
Bay," Feb. 25, 1826. Its name was changed March 17, 1834. 
Its northern border is washed by the waters of Lake Ontario. 
It lies east of the center of the county. A part of Great Sodus 
Bay lies in the north-west corner, and extends within a mile of 
the southern border of the town. East Bay, in the north, and a 
part of Port Bay, in the north-east, extend some distance into 
the town. Its surface is rolling, with a general northern inclina- 



43 ' WAYNM COUNTY. 



tion. In the west and north-west, near Great Sodus Bay, are 
several tracts of swamp land. The lake shore rises in a series 
of bluffs, the highest of which — Chimney Bluff — is 175 feet above 
the lake, and Bay Bluff 120 feet. The town is well watered by 
the several small streams which flow north through it, the principal 
of which is Mudge Creek, which empties into East Bay. The soil 
is a sandy and gravelly loam, intermixed with clay in the south. 
About 1822 a considerable business was carried on at Port Glas- 
gow, but since the Erie Canal was opened, it has gradually decreased, 
until it has almost entirely dwindled away to nothing. The canal 
has had a tendency to draw the business interest away from this 
place. The early settlers of Huron brought with them some 70 
or 80 slaves, but soon found they could not be used to advantage. 
The population of the town in 1865, was 1,972; area 21,826 acres. 
There are 11 schools, employing 12 teachers with an average yearly 
attendance of 223 scholars. Current expenses for school purposes 
during the year ending Oct. 1866, was |l,859.50. N'orth Huron, 
(p. V.) near the head of East Bay, contains 2 churches, (Meth. and 
M. E.) 1 saw mill, 1 grist mill and about 260 inhabitants. South 
Huron, (Huron p. v.) contains 1 church, a town-house, and about 
200 inhabitants. Port Glasgow is a hamlet, at the head of sloop 
navigation, on Great Sodus Bay. It contains' a hotel, and about 
30 inhabitants. Considerable shipping is carried on here during 
the summer season ; but it has deteriorated much within a few 
years, and has almost become depopulated in consequence. 

Peugrine, Fitzghugh and Wm. Helmus, were the first settlers, 
with other families from Md. in 1796. Dr.Zenas Hyde, — Knox, 
Osgood Church and family, with several other families from Mass. 
and Conn,, came in 1807; Norman and Ralph Sheldon the same 
year; and Josiah Upson in 1808, who is now living in Huron, 
aged 70 years. Ralph Sheldon and Harlow Hyde are still living in 
Wolcott, the former 72, and the latter 63 years old. The first birth 
was that of a child of Dr. Hyde, and the first death that of Mrs. 
Hale, in 1809. The first school was taught in 1812 by Gard'enier 
Mudge. Norman Sheldon kept the first inn in 1810; Jas. 
Mudge kept the first store ; and Elihu Spencer built the first saw 
and grist mill in 1809. The first church, (Presb.) was organized 
in 1813. 

LYONS was formed from Sodus, March 1, 1811. Ar- 
cadia was taken off in 1825. It lies on the south border of the 
county, a little east of the center. Its surface is a moderately 
rolling region, broken by sand ridges. The Canandaigua Outlet 
from the south, and Mud Creek from the west, join in the south 
part and form Clyde River. The soil is a sandy and gravelly 
loam, with marl upon the creek bottom lands. The N. Y. C. R. 



WAYNE COUNT F. 43 



R. runs, along the course of the canal, through the town, south of 
the center. The population of the town, from the census of 1865, 
was 5,007; area, 21,758 acres. It contains 13 schools, which em- 
ploy 23 teachers, with an average attendance of 595 scholars. 
The expenditure for school purposes during the year ending Oct. 
1866, was 19,175.30. 

Lyons, (p. V.) on the canal, at the junction of Canandaigua Out- 
let and Mud Creek, and a station on the N. Y. C. R. R., was in- 
corporated April 18, 1854. It contains the county buildings, gas 
works, 7 churches, (1 Presb., 1 Lutheran, 1 M. E., 1 Epis., 1 
Dutch Meth., 1 Baptist and 1 Catholic,) a musical academy, a 
union school, (which was among the first of the kind established in 
the State,) 4 banks, 2 newspaper offices, (the Lyons Republican and 
Wayne Democratic Press,) a manufactory of essential oils, (prin- 
cipally peppermint,) a furnace, machine and agricultural imple- 
ment shop, a pottery, 2 breweries, a tannery, a tile manufactory, a 
brick yard, 7 fanning mill factories, a manufactory of saddle-trees, 
2 planing mills, 1 steam bending factory, and a sash and blind 
factory. Many of these, however, are carried on only to a limited 
extent. The village contained 3,036 inhabitants in 1865. Its 
streets are regularly laid out, and lined on either side with well 
grown and well cared for shade trees, and are lighted at night by 
gas. Its business blocks — mostly substantial structures — are too 
straggling, which makes them appear to great disadvantage, losing, 
as they do, all the benefits of a compact village. Many of its pri- 
vate residences are models of architectural beauty and mechanical 
execution. The Lyons people are justly proud of the architectural 
elegance of its public buildings, churches and school houses, as 
well as its substantial sidewalks, which are composed for the most 
part of flagstone. In this respect it is far ahead of most villages 
of its size. The Court House, a sightly edifice, standing on a rise 
of ground overlooking the Park, presents an imposing appearance. 
It was completed in 1856, at a cost of $50,000. It is a model of 
architecture, externally, as it is of convenience and good arrange- 
ment inside. One of the principal business features of Lyons is 
the Iron Foundry, owned by Messrs. Wickson and Van Wickle, 
who employ a large force of men in the manufacture of a general 
assortment of agricultural implements. The Lyons Pottery, 
owned by T. Harrington, also contributes materially to the man- 
ufacturing wealth of the village. Ten men are employed, and 400 
tons white clay, (from Amboy, N. J.,) is annually consumed in the 
manufacture of ware ; 20,000 pots of all descriptions are annually 
made. 

Mr. H. G, Hotchkiss has acquired a world-wide reputation as a 
manufacturer of Essential Oils of Peppermint, and has received the 
first prize at every exhibition at which his products have been pre- 



44 WAYJ^II COUNTY. 



sented. He has been engaged in the business for twenty-five years, 
and has made great improvement, and acquired great proficiency 
in the art of purifying. Mr. Hotchkiss is the greatest producer of 
Peppermint in the world. He has from 200 to 300 acres under 
cultivation, 150 acres of which can be overflowed with water to the 
depth of 6 to 10 inches, at pleasure. This process enables him to 
continue to grow the crop upon the same soil for a series of years, 
and protect the young shoots in winter by a watery covering. Be- 
tween April and July, he employs more than 100 laborers upon 
his plantation. The Spearmint and Peppermint plants are set out 
in April, and are ready for distillation the following July, and con- 
tinues to produce a supply until November, according to the na- 
ture of the ground. The average product of the crop per acre is 
about twenty pounds of pure Oil of Peppermint. The process of 
distillation can only be effected while the plant is maturing, not 
more than three days after being cut, else the volatile oil evapo- 
rates and the plant becomes useless. After being distilled, it un- 
dergoes a certain purifying process, after which it is put into glass 
bottles, and shipped to all parts of the civilized globe ; London, 
(England,) being the principal market. Mr. Hotchkiss' brand is 
considered the best in the world. His annual trade amounts to 
1200,000, and is gradually increasing, as the superiority of the ar- 
ticle he manufactures recommends itself to the extensive trade deal- 
ing in that commodity. Of all the valuable oils produced in the 
United States, the oil of peppermint is perhaps most frequently 
found to be impure or adulterated, owing to negligence in its pre- 
paration. The plant yielding only a small proportion of oil, and 
requiring careful and continual cultivation, and a suitable soil, the 
time of gathering the plant also greatly affecting the quantity and 
quality of the product, its price is necessarily high ; while this oil 
being so much used by the confectioner and pharmaceutist, conse- 
quently causing considerable competition for it among the dealers, 
that a great quantity comes to market deprived of the agreeable 
and refreshing aroma peculiar to the pure oil, or adulterated with 
spirits of turpentine, added during or after the manufacture. The 
product of Mr. Hotchkiss has been analyzed by the best chemists 
in Europe and the United States, upon whose testimony various 
medals have been awarded him. 

Within the incorporation limits, and south of the canal, are sit- 
uated the Wayne County Fair Grounds, a plane of several acres, 
well fenced and supplied with substantial buildings. 

Alloway, (p. v.) in the east part, on Canandaigua Outlet, contains 
1 school, 1 grist mill, and other local business carried on to a lim- 
ited extent, and about 150 inhabitants. 

The first settlement was commenced in 1789, by Nicholas and 
Wm. Stansell and John Eeatherly. They settled, with their fam- 



WATNB COUNTY. 45 



ilies (12 persons in all,) a half mile south of the present village of 
Lyons. They were piloted up the Mohawk, (where they had pre- 
viously settled,) by the usual water route, by Wemple, an Indian 
trader. Charles Williamson, agent of the Pulteney Estate, com- 
menced a settlement at Lyons village in 1794, through Charles 
Cameron, his local agent. James Otto came in 1796. In 1798, 
Judge Evert Van Winkle and forty others came in, from New Jer- 
sey and Maryland, and in 1801, Judge Daniel Dorsey and family, 
from Maryland. Judge Dorsey had previously purchased of Mr. 
Williamson 1,048 acres of land, in the immediate vicinity of the 
village, the assessed value of which in 1802 was $2,696. Mr. Dor- 
sey's personal property was assessed in the same year at $2,379, 
making a total value of assessed property of $5,075, upon which he 
paid a tax of $9.53. Among the early settlers were John Riggs, 
Richard Jones, George Carr, Wm. Gibbs, John Perrine, Robert 
Sutton and James Walters, who came previous to 1801. Thos. E. 
Dorsey, who came in 1801, with his father, Judge Dorsey, is now 
living in Lyons, is hale and hearty, and worked during the entire 
summer of 1866 at his trade, (carpenter and joiner.) Elizabeth 
Riley and Delia Rook, sisters of Mr. Dorsey, who came at the 
same time with him, ai*e also living at Lyons village, the former 
84 and the latter 82 years of age. As early as 1801, and some 
years later, the inhabitants were obliged,to pilot their way through 
the woods with only the mark H cut in the bark of the trees to in- 
dicate that they were on the highway. The first marriage was that 
of James Otto and a daughter of Capt. John Dunn. John Riggs 
kept the first inn, in 1801. Judge^Daniel Dorsey kept the first 
store. The first grist mill was built by the Pulteney Estate, at 
Alloway, in 1796. It was subsequently sold to Henry Tower. 
Daniel Dorsey and Milton Barney built the first carding and cloth- 
dressing mill in 1817. Rev. John Cole, (Meth.) who settled in 
1800, was the first local preacher. 

MACBBOIf was formed from Palmyra, Jan. 29, 1823. It 
lies in the south-west corner of the county. Its surface is rolling 
and irregular. The valley of Mud Creek extends east through the 
south part of the town. It is drained by Mud and Red Creeks, 
and their tributaries. The soil is a clay and gravelly loam upon a 
limestone formation. The canal, and direct branch of the N. Y. C. 
R. R. extends through the center of the town. The population of 
the town, (taken from census of 1865,) is 2,472 ; area 22,818 acres. 
It contains 15 school districts, employing 7 male and 18 female 
teachers, with an, average daily attendance of 267 scholars. The 
valuation of school property in 1866, was $6,515.

It is also a station on the N. Y. C. R. R. between Syracuse and 



46 WATNE COUNTY. 



Rochester, five miles west of Palmyra and eighteen miles east of 
Rochester. The village is about a mile south of the railroad. It 
contains 1 Baptist church, iNsaw mill, a grist mill, a furnace, and 
Machine shop. It has 2 hotels, and the usual number of stores 
and small shops incident to a village of its dimensions. The popu- 
lation of the village is about 500. Macedon Center, (p. v.) about 
a mile north of the railroad, contains 3 churches, the Macedon 
Academy, and about 100 inhabitants. West Macedon is situated 
on the canal, and owes its existence principally to that fact. It con- 
tains 2 stores, and about 50 inhabitants. 

The first settlement commenced as early as 1789, by Webb Hai-- 
wood, and Ebenezer Reed. Israel Delano, from Mass., and David 
Comstock, settled in the north part, and Darius Comstock and 
Jerome Smith in the central part in 1790. Jacob Gannett, John 
Gibson, Barnabas Brown, Abner Hill, Adam Kingman, Stephen 
and Abraham Spear, Jonathan Warner, Constant Southard, Paul 
Reid, Bartimeus Packard, Barney and Phillip Woods, from Mass., 
in 1791. A number of Friends came in in 1800, from Penn. and 
Mass. The fir,st child born was Jacob Gannett, In 1791 ; the first 
death was that of David White. Barnabas Reed taught the first 
school, Wm. Porter kept the first inn, and Jacob Gannett built 
the first mill. Abraham Laphan, with his family, settled in 1791. 
Ira Laphan, his son, is now living, aged 89 years. His health is 
remarkably good. The first church (Bapt.) was organized in 1800. 



Jl£A.ItIOJSr was formed from Williamson, as " Winchester,''^ 
April 18, 1825. Its name was changed April 15, 1826. It is an 
interior town, lying west of the center of the county. Its surface is 
broken by sandy hills and gravelly ridges ; the Niagara limestone 
crops out in the north part. It is drained by East Red Creek, 
which flows south into Mud Creek. The soil is a gravelly, calcar- 
eous loam and drift. Limestone is quarried in the north part for 
building purposes and public works. Near Marion village is a sul- 
phur spring. The population of the town in 1865 was 2,136; area 
17,391 acres. There are 13 school districts, in which 5 male and 
21 female teachers are employed. The average daily attendance 
of scholars is 241. The valuation of the school property in the 
town in 1866, was |4,675. 

Marion, (p. v.) in the south part, contains 5churches,(l Baptist, 
1 M. E., 1 Christian, 1 Presbyterian, and 1 Dutch Presbyterian,) 
Marion Collegiate Institute, 1 furnace and machine shop, 1 fan- 
ning ^ill and 2 cabinet ware manufactories. A survey has been 
taken and efforts are being made to have the village incorporated. 
The population of the village from census of this spring,4867, is 483. 



WAYJ^iE COUNTY. . 47 



The settlement of the town was commenced in 1795, by Henry 
Lovell and Daniel Powell. Moses A. Blakesley and David Sweezy 
settled in 1797, and Wm. Cogswell from Rhode Island, in March 
1798. David Sherman and Robert Springer came in 1796, and 
Samuel H. Colwell in 1797. Robert Springer, who came in 1796, 
returned to Rhode Island the next year, and brought his family, 
after having purchased a piece of land and cleared a small place. 
Israel and Samuel, his sons, are now living in the village, and en- 
joj-ing uniformly good health; the former being 73, and the latter 
75 yeai's old. Wm. B.Cogswell is still living in the village, aged 90 
years. Annie Powell, (now Potter,) who came in the town with 
her father, (Daniel Powell,) was boni in Palmyra, and is now liv- 
ing in the village, aged 72 years. The first birth that occurred in 
town was in the family of Henry Lovell ; the first death that of 
Joel Phelps in 1797. Widow Stiles kept the first inn, in 1799 ; 

and built the first grist mill in 1801. The first church, 

(Presb.) was organized Nov. 1, 1808. 

ON^TAItlO was formed from Williamson, as " Freetown,^^ 
March 27, 1 807. Its name was changed Feb. 1 2, 1 808. Walworth 
was taken off in 1829. It is the north-west corner town of the 
county ; Lake Ontario forming its northern boundary. Its surface 
is mostly level with a general inclination toward the lake. It is 
drained by several streams running north to the lake, the principal 
of which are Bear, Deer, and Davis Creeks. The soil is a sandy, 
gravelly loam, with drift and muck nortli of the ridge. Between 
the lake shore and the Ridge road, are extensive marshes, heavily 
timbered. Iron ore, in the form of red oxyd, is found in large 
quantities in the Clinton group, extending east and west through 
the center of the town. Salt was formerly manufactured to some 
extent. The ore bed was first discovered by Mr. Knickerbocker, a 
resident of the town, in 1811, while engaged in digging a hole to 
water his cattle. The vein is about 20 rods uniform width, and 18 
inches to 2 feet thick. In Ontario it is only from 3 to 6 feet below 
the surface. It has been quarried extensively, and has contributed 
largely to the growth and prosperity of the town. The population 
in 1865 was 2,312; area 19,977 acres. It contains 14 school dis- 
tricts, in which are employed 7 male and 21 female teachers. Thg 
average attendance of scholars is 321. The valuation of the school 
property in the town in 1866, was $6,010. 

Ontario, (p. v.) in the south-east part, contains 1 church, (Wes. 
Meth.) 1 school, 1 hotel, 1 saw mill, and a stave and heading ma- 
chine. Its population is about 250. Ontario Center, 2 miles west 
of Ontario village, contains 2 churches, (Bapt. and Presb.) several 
small mechanical shops, and about 150 inhabitants. * Furnace Vil- 
lage contains the Wayne Co. Iron Go's. Works. They manufacture

a large quantity of pig iron, from ore dug in the town. It has 
about 75 inhabitants. New Boston, on the lake shore, is a hamlet, 
and Lake Side about 2 miles south-east of the north-west coi-ner of 
the town, is a post office. 

The first settlement was commenced by Freeman Hopkins, from 
Mass., in 1806. Among the early settlers were Peter Thatcher, 
Harry Leavins, and Noah Fuller, who settled on the lake shore in 
1809. Willard Church, Isaac Simmons, John Case, Wm. Middle- 
ton, Jared Putnam, David Jennings, and Amos, Amasaf, an^ Levi 
Thayer, from Conn., in 1810. In the south part settlement com- 
menced in 1808. Daniel Inman settled at the corners in 1809; 
John Edwards, Samuel Sabin, Abraham Smith, Wm. Billings, Lewis 
Janes, and George Sawyer, near the same place, soon after. Al- 
fred Town, Nathaniel Grant, and Wm. Greenwood, located at 
West Cornei's. Alanson Goodnow settled in 1811. He is now 
living at Ontario Village, and is 71 years old. He has had no sick- 
ness within 45 years. David Jennings, a very early settler, is still 
living in town, and is 80 years old. The first child born was Me- 
lissa Hopkins, May 7, 1806 ; and the first death was that of Har- 
riet Kilburn, in 1811. Daniel Inman kept the first inn, in 1811 ; 
and Freeman Hopkins built the first saw mill. Daniel Inman built 
a saw mill about the same time. The first church (Bapt.) was 
organized in 1811, by Elder Lyon. 

JPA-LJlfYJEiA. was erected, by Court of General Sessions of 
Ontai-io Co., in Jan., 1789. Macedon was taken off in 1823. It 
lies in the south border of the county, west of the center. Its sui'- 
face is undulating. Its streams are East and West Eed Creeks, 
with several smaller ones as tributaries. Mud Creek flows east 
thi'ough the town, south of the center. The soil is a calcareous 
loam, with marl on the creek bottoms, and drift, sand and gravel 
on the hills. The Erie Canal and N. Y. C. R. R. extend through the 
center of the town in a circuitous course. Its population in 1865 
was 4,225; area 19,243 acres. It contains 16 school districts, em- 
ploying 4 male and 29 female teachers, with an average daily at- 
tendance of 555 scholars. The valuation of school property in 
1866 was $18,335. 

Palmyra, (p. v.) in the south-west part, was incorporated April 
9, 1819. It is an important canal village and station on the N. 
Y. C. R. R. It contains 5 churches (1 Presb., 1 M. E., 1 Bapt., 
1 Cath. and 1 Episc.,) 3 banks, 1 printing office, (The Falmyra 
(fourier,) gas works, the Palmyra Union School, (with nine teach- 
ers,) 2 machine shops and manufactories of agricultural imple- 
ments, 1 scale manufactory, cigar manufactory, a flouring mill, vin- 
egar factory, tannery, a printing press manufactory, and several 
hotels and stores ; the population of the village in 1865 was 2,334. 



WAYjVE COVNTY. 49 



East Palmyra^ (p. v.) a Ccanal and R. R. station, contains 2 churches, 
(Presb. and Meth.,) a grist mill, store, and about 150 inhabitants. 
Some of the first families locating in Palmyra came from Litch- 
field Co., Conn,, including numbers who had quit their lands in the 
Wyoming, (a beautiful valley of the Susquehanna,) on account of 
controversies about titles to land, &c. Col. John Jenkins and Gen. 
John Swift were among the primitive adventurers who pitched their 
tents in the then howling wilderness of " Ga-nar-gweh," (the abo- 
riginal name of the tract,) now transformed to the blossoming 
gardens, the cultivated fields and the happy " homes " of Palmyra. 
There is a humble stone in the old graveyard of this village, bear- 
ing the inscription — "John Swift." But few names are more 
deeply imbedded in the foundations of this community. He has 
figured so conspicuously in the events connected with it, as well as 
the county at large, that his name is worthy of especial mention. 
John Swift was a native of Kent, Litchfield County, Conn. When 
15 years old he became a soldier in the Revolution, and served 
seven years, till the close of the war. He was one of the Connec- 
ticut colony in the valley of the Wyoming, and in a bold attempt 
to fire the Block House of the Pennamites, he was shot through 
the neck, the ball passing between the spinal column and the eso- 
phagus. A like recovery w^as scarcely ever known in the his- 
tory of surgery. After the settlement of difficulties, a company 
of Connecticut people was formed, and John Swift and John Jen- 
kins were appointed agents to select and purchase lands for their 
occupation. Jenkins had been in the employ of Phelps and Gor- 
ham, as surveyor, and was acquainted with this section of the Gen- 
esee country. In 1789, they purchased Tp. 12, R. 2, wow Palmy- 
ra, and commenced the survey of lots along Mud Creek in March. 
During the summer, John Swift moved into the town, and erected 
a log house and storehouse, a little north of the lower end of Main 
St., Palmyra. While asleep there, with their assistants, four In- 
dians, attracted by the light, put their guns through the open 
spaces between the logs, killed one man named Barker, and shot a 
ball through the nose of another by the name of Church. It is 
probable this damj)ened the zeal of the Pennsylvania emigrants. 
True it is, the Susquehanna company was given uj), and Swift, in 
order to effect a settlement sufficiently formidable to render it safe, 
spent the summer of 1790 in forming companies in Massachusetts, 
Connecticut and Rhode Island. In Sept. 1790, Swift moved his 
family into this unbroken wilderness. He built the first house of 
logs, covered with bark. His wife was the first woman who ven- 
tured a residence in this native wilderness. One evening, v/hile 
making hasty pudding, three Indians came in and sat around the 
fire. At length they made signs of violence. At this, the hero- 
ine of the log cabin seized a red-hot poker, and used it so efficiently 



50 WAYJ\rU COUNTY. 



that they concluded a " swift " retreat was the better part of 
valor. John Swift was the first Moderator of the first town meet- 
ing ; the first Supervisor ; the first pound tender ; the first Cap- 
tain, and at his house was held the first training. At his house, if 
we except Canandaigua and Bloomfield, was formed the first 
church west of Oneida Lake. Asa Swift, his son, was the first 
male child born in the town. He gave lands for the first grave 
yard, the first school house, and the first church in the village. 
Indeed from 1790 to 1812, the name of John Swift is identified 
with every enterprise, pecuniary, political and religious. In the 
war of 1812 he became a victim to his own inadvertence. At its 
commencement he was appointed Brevet Oen. N. Y. Vols. In 
1812, while stationed at Queenstown Heights, he led a detachment 
down the river, some six miles, to Ft. George ; surrounded and 
took prisoners a picket guard of the enemy, with some 60 men. 
Instead of commanding the prisoners to ground their arms and 
march away from them, he suffered them ito retain them. One of 
the captives inquired, "Who is Gen. Swift ?" Most inadvisedly he 
stood forth and said, " I am Gen. Swift." In an instant the inquisi- 
tive prisoner put a ball through his breast. He was borne to the 
nearest house, where he died, and was buried July 12, 1814, aged 
52 years. After the war the citizens of Palmyra disinterred his 
remains and deposited them in the old cemetery of the village. 
The N. Y. Legislature, out of respect to his patriotism and bravery, 
presented a sword to his oldest son, and directed that a full length 
portrait of Gen. Swift should be hung up in the City Hall of New 
York. Maj. Howe Cuyler was another, and an earlier sacrifice to 
the war of 1812, from Palmyra. He was the first lawyer that 
opened an office in Palmyra, and a man still remembered for his 
public enterprise and generous sympathies. He was the Aid of 
Gen. Hall. On the night of the 8th of Oct., 1812, he was killed 
at Black Rock, by a four pound ball fi-om the British battery at 
Ft. Erie. He moved to Palmyra in 1804, from Greenbush. Soon 
after his arrival he purchased the village lot on which now stands 
the Methodist Chapel, and built and occupied the house yet remain- 
ing north of it. This being then a slave State, he brought Avith 
him two negro slaves, (Charles and Mahala,) and was the first, if 
not the only slaveholder ever residing in. Palmyra. He took a 
laudable pride in village improvements, and gave a fresh impetus 
to things in that direction, providing himself a good garden and a 
dressed up door yard, painting his house and planting out shade 
trees, &c. In Nov. 1791, Gideon and Edward Durfee, and Isaac 
Springer, arrived from Tiverton, R. I. They came in wagons on 
the old Military road to the old castle at Geneva ; from thence, 
without a path, they found their way to Palmyra. Prior to this, 
in the fall of 1790, theDurfees came on foot on a tour of discovery 



WATNB COUNTY. 51 



to the " Genesee country," halting at the " Quaker Settlement," 
in Farmington, where Ihey commenced a negotiation for land with 
Isaac Hathaway ; but afterwards preferring Swift's township, they 
bargained with him, and returned to Rhode Island, where they ar- 
rived on the 1st Jan., 1791. Their reporf was regarded with favor 
by their friends, and emigration was determined upon. Prepara- 
tions being made, a colony of 100 men embarked upon their jour- 
ney, with two yoke of oxen and a sled, about the last of Feb. the 
same year, reaching Palmyra the last of April. They planted that 
spring two or three acres of corn on the peak of land near the 
" Howell Saw Mill," east of the village, which had been cleared of 
timber and burnt over by the Indians. They also planted apple- 
seeds, ■which they had brought, on the same ground, (the first tame 
apples planted in the town,) and from these originated the old 
orchard of the Durfee family, yet remaining on the " homestead." 
Afterwards Pardon Durfee brought from Rhode Island and planted 
in the same garden, pear, and other fruit seeds, and it was from 
one of these that sprung the " Osband Pear," now propagated in 
fruit nurseries as the best of all summer pears. The seedling was 
given by Mr. Durfee to his brother-in-law. Weaver Osband, who 
brought it into bearing — hence the name it has taken. Pardon 
Durfee came in in 1792, driving the cattle belonging to the colony. 
The next August a boat landed near the farm house owned by 
Martin Butterfield, bringing Gideon the elder, and Job, Stephen 
and Ruth Durfee. Lemuel Durfee arrived four years later. Ruth 
Durfee married Capt. Wm. Wilcox — the first marriage in the 
town. It is said that Swift had failed to fulfil his engagements to 
Phelps and Gorham, but when the Durfee family came he '' took 
heart," for they brought the hard coin, sufficient to pay down for 
1,600 acres of land. This money enabled Swift to secure a war- 
ranty deed of the town. These were soon followed by Lemuel 
Spear, David Jackques, Jas. Galloway, Jonathan Willet and the 
Mattisons ; and by Wm., James and Thos. Rogers, Festus and 
Isaac Goldsmith, Humphrey Sherman, Zebulon Williams and 
Weaver Osborn, from Rhode Island. David Wilcox, from Adams, 
Mass., came with his family in April 1791 . Mary, his daughter, was 
born the 29th of next June, and was the first white female child 
born in the town. A colony was formed at Southampton, who in 
1790 sent forward Elias Reeves and Joel Foster, as their agents, to 
buy land. Gen. Swift having failed to meet the payment for his 
purchase, they negotiated with Phelps and Gorham, in order to be 
sure of a good title. In April, 1792, the Long Island colony em- 
barked at Southampton, in a sail boat built by Joel and Cyrus 
Foster. They sailed through the Sound to New York, thence to 
Albany; from there they transported their boat by land, 10 miles, 
to Schenectady ; with " setting poles " they pushed the boat up the 



52 WAYJSfE COUNTY. 



Mohawk to Rome. From there they conveyed the boat by land 
something less than a mile to Wood Creek ; thence floating down 
to Oneida Lake, through the lake and the outlet, they came to Os- 
wego River ; thence into Seneca River ; through that to Clyde 
River; through Mud Creek to Saw-mill Creek, landing near the 
present residence of Hiram Foster. The voyage occupied 28 days. 
The way now being open, the same old hive sent out repeated 
swarms of working bees. The Clarks, Posts, Howells, Jaggers, 
Culvers, Jessups and many others followed. This old boat did 
good service in going and returning with other companies. It was 
finally conveyed to Seneca Lake and used as a pleasure boat. In 
1790-91, Lemuel Spear, Dr. Gain Robinson, David White and 
David Warner, with their families, came from Cummington, Mass. 
Also, Reuben Town, the fii*st physician located in Palmyra, Isaac 
Kelley, Stephen Phelps, Webb Harwood, Abraham Laphan and 
Solomon Hathaway, were from Adams, Mass. Joseph Colt, the 
first merchant in the village, came from Lyme, Conn. ; Silas Stod- 
dard, from Groton, and Enoch Sanders, from Warren, Conn. Asa 
Lilly was from Athol, Mass. These came about 1800. The first 
store, a log edifice, on the spot where the R. R. Depot now stands, 
was kept by Zebulon Williams. Here were the head waters of 
navigation of Mud Creek, which was established as a navigable 
stream by an act of the Legislature in 1799. The town or dis- 
trict was first christened Tolland by the pioneers, (then in "Try on" 
Co.) Ira Selby taught tiie first school (built in 1793,) in the vil- 
lage ; which was succeeded in 1801 by a framed one built upon the 
same site. This building, like its predecessor, was used for both 
school and religious purposes ; both being conducted for a number 
of years by Rev. Eleazer Fairbanks, who was the first pastor of 
the first church, (Presb.,) formed in 1797. Luther Sanford built 
the first framed barn. The first two-story framed house was built 
by Silas- Harts. The first blacksmith was Zechariah Blackman. 
The first house burnt was Maj. Colt's smoke-house. Dr. Azel Ens- 
worth was the first postmaster, also the first tavern-keeper and dea- 
con. By reason of this latter double office, it was frequently Dr. 
E.'s good fortune to be the honored host of the clergy, either tran- 
sient or -resident. Shng was the favorite "treat" in those times, 
which was anterior to temperance societies. In his proverbial po- 
liteness the Dr. was duly observant of the prevailing custom, in 
treating his "minister" guests to sling made of West India rum, 
with white loaf sugar ; while the " captains," " squires " and com- 
mon people, were content with' home-made whiskey and maple sugar. 

Here the insidious monster, Mormonism, was nursed and cradled ; 
which, like the " serpent in "Eden," has chosen for, its victims the 
fairest of God's creatures. For 37 years it has dragged its slimy 
footsteps through the annals of American history. Its progenitor.

Joseph Smith Jr., was born in Sharon, Windson county, Vt., Dec. 
23, 1805. He removed to Palmyra, with his father, Joseph Sr., 
and family, in 1815 or '16. They soon after moved just over the 
town line into Manchester, some two miles south-west of Palmyra 
village. Joseph Smith, the father of the " Prophet," previous to the 
Mormon dispensation, supported himself and family by digging 
and peddling "rutes and yarbs," selling cake, beer, &c. In 1819 or 
'20, they commenced digging for money for a subsistence. The 
vocation was noised around among the community, and not a few 
were credulous enough to believe that they were within reach of a 
"chest of gold," ("which had repeatedly eluded their grasp,") and 
contributed money to the Smiths to enable them to continue their 
excavations. They, however, used the money thus obtained for the 
support of the family, and in the meantime kept their friends in a 
fever of excitement while treasure hunting. Here we must pause 
to relate an incident replete with important interest, from its inti- 
mate connection with the rise and progress of Moi-monism. Rev. 
Solomon Spaulding, while residing at Conneaut, Ohio, in 1809, 
formed the basis of a- romance purporting to give the history of a 
lost race of people, from the numerous mounds and relics of dilapi- 
dated fortifications in this vicinity, which inspired the idea of this 
literary production. His original design was merely to amuse 
himself and friends by the imaginary history, entitled " Manuscript 
Found." It claims to have been written by one of the lost nations, 
and recovered from one of the mounds. After its completion it 
was left for perusal with a Mr. Patterson, publisher of a newspa- 
per there; but possessing no real merit, Mr. Patterson refbsed to 
publish it. Spaulding neglected to call for it, and it was finally 
thrown amoiTg the waste paper, where it came under the observa- 
tion of Sydney Rigdon, who was at that time connected with the 
office, and who took a copy of it. Rigdon upon hearing of the 
doings of the Smith family in Palmyra, conceived an idea, which 
resulted in the printing of the Mormon Bible. He at once pro- 
ceeded to Palmyra, and had long and frequent private interviews 
with Joseph Smith Jr., when it is supposed they formed the plan 
of a new religious dispensation. From this romantic legend the 
Mormon Bible vras transposed. Joseph Smith would repair at 
night to a cave in the hillside, and dictate to his amanuensis, (Oliv- 
er Cowdery,) what he " mysteriously translated from golden plates," 
which he pretended to have found while digging for money in Sept. 
1823, by spirit of revelation, but was not permitted to take them 
from the earth until 1827, about the time the Bible was commenced. 
The greatest secrecy was observed during the pretended revela- 
tions, which were only given in the cave at night, without any light, 
no one else being able to read the inscription on the plates but he. 
When it was completed, they were in a great dilemma to know 



54 WA YNE CO UNTY. 



how they were to get it printed. Ttiis difficulty was soon obviated 
by Martin Harris, a convert, mortgaging bis farm to defray the 
expenses, ruining himself in doing so. Application was made 
about June 1S39, io Mr. Egbert B. Grandin, the publisher of the 
Wayne Sentinel at Palniyra, for the printing of the book. Grandin 
at once advised them against the supposed folly of the enterprise. 
All importunity, howeTer, was resisted by Harris, and resented 
with assumed pious indignation by Smith. Upon the refusal of 
Grandin, they applied the same year to Mr. Weed, of the Anti- 
Masonic Inquirer, at Rochester, and there met with a similar re- 
fusal. They again applied to Mr. Gratndin, who, upon seeing their 
determination, consented to print it, stipulating to pritit 5,000 copies 
of the bobk for a compensation offS.OOO. 

From such insignificant seed sprang the giant evil, which now, on 
the soil of a distant Territory, threatens the troops of the United 
States, subverts all principles of law and otder,- builds a rriighty 
hierarchy of falsehood and licentiousness, and will draw millions of 
dollars from the public treasury to suppress it. That vice and 
crime are fostered by the peculiarities of life in Utah, no one can 
reasonably doubt. There has been no time, in a great msixij years 
past, when the American Government would not have been justi- 
fied in using its strong hand to crush the hydra-headed monster 
which there holds hideous reign under the piteous pretence of being 
a religious sect. The basis of Mormonism is polygamy, and noth- 
ing else ; the " prophets " are sensualists, whose sole desire is to 
keep a harem of concubines ; and in no other way can they carry 
out their beastly designs, than by cloaking their hideousness under 
the pretence of a religious sect. There are two reasons why they 
can do this only so ; the first is, that there is no influence that can 
be brought to bear upon the weak and ignorant among females with 
such swaying potency as the pretence that polygamy is the highest 
development of religious abnegation on their part, and is taught by 
the scriptures as a duty ; the second is, that in this country, where 
religious freedom is guaranteed by the Constitution to all, the Mor- 
mons rest securely in the trust, that, as a religious sect, the Govern- 
ment dare not meddle with them. 

But we are of those who believe that Mormonism is in no true 
sense a religious institution, and that its assumption of being such, 
should not be sufficient to free it from the strong hand of the law. 
The longer the Mormons are left alone, the more powerful they 
grow ; and this will be so, as long as there are sensual and brutal 
men who seek to set aside the laws of morality and Christianity, 
and practice licentiousness under the sanction of, or with a certain 
immunity from the law. In the future history of our country, the 
Western Territories, in the heart of which Utah lies, are destined to 
play a most important and influential part. The march of progress 



WAYNE COUNTY. 55 



is steadily westward with us, and each succeeding year sees the 
springing up of new towns further and further away from the reach 
of railroads. Out of the way of the steady onward march of civili- 
zation and freedom, polygamy must be swept, and that soon. Scarce- 
ly any crime known to the Decalogue, but is openly — or almost 
openly — practised in Utah. Polygamy, itself a crime by the laws 
of every State in the Union, is of that nature that it calls to its as- 
sistance all other crimes. It calls in murder without hesitation, 
and no man's life is safe in Utah, who is not himself a polygamist, 
unless he is sheltered by a United States Fort. All local officials 
work the machinery of justice, in such a way as to play into the 
hands of polygamy. It is all in all, and woe to the man or thing 
that obstructs its course. To the list of their iniquities, the "Saints" 
(as they style themselves, after the brazen fashion of hypocrites, 
generally,) took occasion during our late war, to add that of trea- 
son. From Brigham Young down, the desire was general in Mor- 
mondom, that the Union should be destroyed, and slavery given a 
new lease of life. Not a soldier was sent out, not a dollar was 
given, to aid the Union cause. No doubt the " prophets " saw that 
in the future, the same power which was wiping the stain of slavery 
from our national life, would raise its arm to strike down polygamy. 
May the vision prove a true one. 



ROSEf named in honor of Robert S. Rose, who held an inter- 
est in the "Nicholas 4000 acre tract," was formed from Wolcott, 
Feb. 5, 1826. It lies in the interior of the county, east of the cen- 
ter, and contains an area of 21,849f acres. Its surface is general- 
ly undulating or level, with drift ridges in the south-east. Several 
small tracts of swamp land are to be found in various parts of the 
town. The soil is a gravelly loam, intermixed with clay on the 
westerly side of the drift ridges, and with muck on the low lands. 
Good clay for brick and tile is found in many places. The highest 
elevation is 140 feet above Lake Ontario. Limestone approaches 
the surface in various places, and has been quarried to some extent 
for lime and building purposes. The old Lock on the Erie Canal 
at Clyde, was built in 1823 from stone taken from an extensive 
quarry in the north part of this town. The streams are small ; 
Mudge, Sherman, and Thomas Creeks are the principal. The first 
town meeting was held at the house of Charles Thomas ; Erastus 
Fuller, a justice of the peace of the old town of Wolcott, presiding. 
Peter Valentine was the first supervisor. 

Rose Valley, (Rose p. o.) near the center, contains four church- 
es, a steam saw-mill, tannery, several stores and two hotels. Pop- 
ulation about 400. Wayne Center, (p. o.) in the west, and North 
Rose, (p. o.) in the north, are hamlets. 



56 M WAYNE COUNTY. 



The first settlement was commenced in 1805 by Caleb, Melvin 
and Alpheus Harman and Lot Stewart. Among the early settlers 
may be mentioned John Sherman, Thaddeus Collins,' Milburn Sals- 
bury, Joel Bishop, Seth and Oliver Whitmore, James and Jerry 
Leland, Aaron Shepard, Elizur Flint, Paine Phillips, Hosea, Har- 
vey and Asahel Gilletts, Jacob Clapper, Benj. Way, Robt. Jeffers, 
Simeon Van Auken, Dorman Munsell, Simeon I. Barnett, Nathan 
JefFers, Wm. Phillips, Philander Mitchell, Robert Andrews, John 
Bassett, John and Alverson Wade, Palmer Lovejoy, Samuel South- 
wick, Jonathan Ellenwood, Joseph* Seely, James Colborn, Peter 
Valentine,. Charles Thomas, with his sons, Nathan W., Eron N. 
and Lorenzo C, William Watkins, Orin Lackey, Alfred, Lyman, 
Joel, and .John Lee, Solomon Mirick, John Closs, Wm. Chadock, 
Robert Mason, Gideon Henderson, David Smith, John Skidmore, 
Edward and Peter Aldrich, Dudley Wade, John Barnes, Solomon 
Alien, Amos and John Covey, and Isaac Crydenwise. 

The first birth was that of a child of Milburn Salisbury, in 1812. 
The first marriage, that of Hosea Gillett and Hannah Burnham, in 
Jan. 1813; and the first death, a child of Harvey Gillett in 1812.. 
Sally Bishop taught the first school, in 1813. Seth Whitmore and 
Simeon Van Aukin built the first grist and saw mill in 1812-13, 
on Thomas Creek, at Glenmark Falls. Aaron Shepard was the 
first blacksmith, in 18,12. John Bassett, who commenced the busi- 
ness soon after, still resides in the village, aged 75 years. John 
Shei-man kept the first inn, about the year 1815. John Barber Jr., 
opened the first store, in 1832. After one year hear he moved his 
goods to Clyde, and was succeeded in Rose Valley by Eron N. 
Thomas, his former clerk, who continued the business successfully 
until the year 1859, when, being largely engaged in buying and 
selling real estate, farming, manufacturing, building, '&c., the sel- 
ling of goods was abandoned. Dr. Peter Valentine was the first 
established physician, in 1819. The first church (M. E.) was or- 
ganized in 1824 with six members. A stone church was jerected 
in 1833, and was destroyed by fire in 1858. A new site was pur- 
chased, and in 1860 a church was built at an expense of about 18,- 
000. The first Presbyterian church was organized Feb. 17, 1825, 
and a church built in 1832, which, in 1862, was sold for a school 
house, and the same year a brick church was erected on a new site. 
The Baptist society was organized about 1835, and their church 
was erected in 1839-40. The Free Methodist Church was organ- 
ized about the year 1860, and have a small church. Some twenty 
or thirty years since, several deluded people from this and adjoin- 
ing towns were engaged in "money digging," and on many of the 
farms the traces of their work are yet visible. They professed to 
work under the guidance of invisible spirits, through an interpreter, 
who claimed to know of money chests, gold, and valuable minerals ; 



WAYNE COVNTY. 67 



and many a time they were just upon the expected treasui-e, when, 
under the excitement of the moment, some unlucky "digger" would 
break the spell by an exclamation, the untold riches vanished, and 
the poor frightened individuals run for life. The proposed "Sodus 
Canal," of which we have spoken under head, of Galen, passes thro' 
this town. Population of the town in 1865, was 2,209. 

SA.VA.NJ^A.I£f named from the surface, in the south part, 
was formed fi-om Galen, Nov. 24, 1824. It is the south-east cor- 
ner town of the county. Its surface is broken by drift ridges in the 
north, and is low," and marshy in the south ; about one-third of the 
south part is a wood-land marsh, known as Crusoe Island. Seneca 
River forms the south part of the east boundary. Crusoe Lake is a 
small, shallow body of water near the center ; its outlet, Crusoe 
Creek, flows into Seneca River. The soil in the north is a sandy 
and gravelly loam, and in the south it is principally composed of 
muck and shell marl. The Galen Salt Works, of an early period, 
were in this town. They were discontinued in consequence of the 
successful competition of the Salina Salt Works, owing to the su- 
perior brine which those works produced. A tract of about 1,900 
acres in the south-east part, is an open marsh, producing coarse 
grass, which has been successfully used in the manufacture of print- 
ing paper. Efforts have been made to reclaim this vast tract of 
swampy country, by a process of draining. A project of turning 
the course of a creek flowing into Seneca River was contemplated, 
but owing to an opposition of commercial interests in Oswego, it 
was abandoned, and the subject still remains an open matter. 

The town has an area of 21,908 acres. Its population in 1865 
was 1,938. There are 13 schools, employing 13 teachers, with an 
average attendance of 283 scholars. The expenses for school pur- 
poses during the year 1866, was 13,519.37. 

Savannah, (p. .v.) near the center, incorporated April 15, 
1867, is a station upon the N. Y. C. R. R., and contains 2 
schools, 1 church, (Presb.) and 350 inhabitants. A steam 
stave mill, owned by Mr. Devfendorf, was burnt in the fall of 
1866, and is now being rebuilt. In the spring of 1865, the coun- 
try on the line of Crusoe Creek was inundated by the freshet 
at that time, carrying away all the bridges on the creek. 
Much damage was done to the parts flooded, and much inconvenience 
resulted to the inhabitants before the damage could be repaired. 

The first settlement was made by Elias Converse and Joseph 
Mozier, in 1812. Alexander and Martin Lamb, John, Jacob and 
Cornelius Oves, settled previous to 1815. Henry Taylor, now 
living in town, followed in 1815; and Michael Weatherwax, Ben- 
jamin Seeley, Garret Burnham, Abner, Ezra and John Brockway, 
Henry Myers, David Cushman, and Sampson McBane, mostly 



58 WAYNE COUNTY. 



from Eastern New York, soon after. George Fredenburgh, now 
living in 111., was among the early settlers. He and Sally Con- 
verse were the first couple married in the town ; and their child 

was the first birth. The first death that occurred was that of 

Sweetman. Lorin Brown taught the first school in 1817. Eev. Mr. 
Wiers was the first minister settled in the town ; but no church was 
in the town until very recently. It now contains but one. John 
Brockway and Chauncey Ives are still living in the town ; the 
forriier 80 and the latter 70 years old. - 

SOD JJSf called by the Indians "Assorodus," meaning "silvery 
water," was formed in January, 1789, by Court of General Sessions 
of Ontario County. Williamson was taken oflT Feb. 20, 1802, and 
Lyons, March 1, 1811. It is the central town on the north border 
of the county, and is bounded north by Lake Ontario. A part of 
Great Sodus Bay lies in the north-east corner. Its surface in the 
north part is mostly level, with a gentle inclination toward the 
lake. A ridge, 140 to 190 feet higher than the surface of the lake, 
passes through near the center ; and south of this the surface is 
broken by several ridges extending north and south. The lake 
shore varies in height from a low swamp to bluffs 70 feet high. — 
Second and Salmon Creeks are the principal streams. The soil in 
the north part is a clay and sandy loam, and in the south a gravel- 
ly loam. The manufacture of lime is extensively carried on in the 
south part ; and red sandstone is quarried in the south-west. Red 
oxyd of iron (argillaceous ore) is found two miles west of Sodus 
Point. Salt was manufactured in 1831 and '32. It is by far the 
largest town in the county, covering an area of 40,184 acres, and 
contains many beautiful natural prospective views. The lighthouse 
at Big Sodus Bay, built in 1825, with revolving light, 64 feet above 
the lake, was destroyed in a gale in 1857. The harbor at this place 
upon which so much has been expended, is in a very dilapidated 
condition, the piers being washed away into the harbor, thus ren- 
dering it very unsafe for vessels to put in. This was probably the 
best harbor on the south shore of Lake Ontario, and the money 
which has been expended on its would be improvement, has left it 
in a worse condition than when in its natural state, owing to the 
insuflSciency of the appropriations, and incompleteness which has 
characterized the eflforts to render it a good and safe harbor. The 
population of the town in 1865, was 4,603. It contains 23 schools 
employing 23 teachers, with an average yearly attendance of 492 
scholars. The expenditures for school purposes during the year 
1866, was $4,616.53. 

Sodus (p. V.) contains 3 churches, (Bapt., Presb. and M. E.) 
the Sodus Academy, incorporated by Regents, Jan. 11, 1855, and 
employing four teachers ; a planing mill, and about 700 inhabit- 



WA YNE CO UNTT. 5 9 



ants. Sodus Point, (p. v.) on the lake, west of the entrance to the 
Bay, is a U. S, port of entry in the Genesee District. It has a 
church, saw mill and boat yard, and about 250 inhabitants. It is 
a very general favorite and pleasant summer resort for the people 
of this section. Here, in fair weather, may be seen large numbers 
of visitors, eager for the joys of a day's fishing on the Bay. The 
Sodus Point and Southern R. R. was organized March 8, 1852, 
with a capital of $350,000. Operations were commenced in the 
construction of this road, which was surveyed and partly graded, 
but finally abandoned in 1854. It was designed to connect with 
the Catskill and Ithaca R. R. Sodus Centre (p. v.) contains 1 
church, 1 foundry, 1 carding mill, 2 grist mills, 1 saw mill, and 
about 180 inhabitants. Alton (p. v.) contains 1 church, (Meth.) 
1 saw mill, a tavern, and about 100 inhabitants. South Sodus 
(p. V.) contains a tavern, and about 125 inhabitants. Joy (p. v.) 
contains 1 church, (Meth.) 1 saw mill, and about 150 inhabitants. 

The first settlement was made in 1794, under the auspices of 
Charles Williamson, agent of the Pulteney Estate. Mr. William- 
son caused a road to be cut through from Palmyra to Sodus Point 
in the spring of 1794. During the summer the town was survey- 
ed, an extensive city plan laid out between Salmon Creek and the 
Point, and within two years mills were erected on Salmon Creek. 
A tavern was built at an expense of $5,000, a pleasure yacht was 
placed upon the bay, and, in roads, surveys, buildings, (fee, over 

$20,000 were expended. Thomas Little, and Mofl^at were 

the local agents of Mr. Williamson. Of all those connected with 
these premature improvements, but few remained after they were 
completed. Elijah Brown was an early settler, four miles west of 
the Point, and Amos Richards, seven miles west. Ammi Ells- 
worth came from Conn., in 1801, and settled near the point. Dr. 
Wm. Nixon Loomis, settled at the Point, and built mills and a 
forge. A daughter of his is Mrs. Elizabeth Ellet, author of "Wo- 
men of the Revolution," and "Domestic History of the Revolu- 
tion." Col. Peregrine Fitzhugh came from Md. in 1803, with his 
family and slaves — over 40 persons in all. Dr. Thomas G. Law- 
son, an Englishman, settled one mile from the Point in 1803. Af- 
ter expending considerable money in attempting to form a settle- 
ment, he abandoned the enterprise in 1805. In 1799, besides those 
already mentioned, there were 25 families in town on roads lead- 
ing to Palmyra and Lyons. Moses and James Sill kept the first 
inn, at Sodus Point, in the building erected for that purpose by 
Mr. Williamson. The first church (Bapt.) was organized in 1805. 
Elder Seba Norton was the first settled minister. On the evening 
of June 13, 1813, a party of about 100 English landed at Sodus 
Point in boats, from the fleet of Sir James Yeo, for the purpose of 
seizing or destroying what public stores they could find. They

were opposed by about 40 Americans under Capt. Hull, of Lyons. 
After the first fire the Americans retreated. The enemy burned 
five houses, and the old Williamson Hotel, owned by Capt. Wm. 
Wickham. The public flour had been secreted in a ravine, and re- 
mained undiscovered. The next day a gunboat proceeded up the 
lake to Nicholas Point and burned a warehouse. The British had 
two killed, and the Americans one killed and one mortally wound- 
ed. The total amount of property destroyed amounted to about 
$25,000. 

WALWOMTSf named from Gen. Chancellor Walworth, 
was formed from Ontario, April 20, 1829. It is the central town 
in the west border of the county. Its surface is a high rolling up- 
land, the ridges being the most elevated land in the county. A 
stranger standing upon their summit is at once impressed by 
the grand and picturesque scenery which here presents itself to his 
view. The Niagara limestone crops out in the north part, mark- 
ing its course by a hard, stony surface, some rods in width. It is 
drained north by several small streams, and south-east by tributa- 
ries of Red Creek. The soil is a rich sandy loam. The popula- 
tion of the town in 1865 was 2,179 ; area 20,401 acres. It con- 
tains 13 school districts, in which 6 male and 16 female teachers 
are employed, with an average daily attendance of 267 scholars. 
The valuation of the school property in 1866 was |4,278. 

Walworth, (p. v.,) near the south-east corner, contains 2 churches, 
(Bapt. and M. E.,) the Walworth Academy, 1 hotel, 2 cooper 
shops, and other incidental mechanical interests. Its population is 
about 300. Its streets are lined on either side by ornamental 
shade trees, for which it is indebted to the enterprise of Mr. T. G. 
Yeomans, one of the most prominent residents of the village. 
Mr. Yeomans has quite an extensive nursery, which covers about 
70 acres, in a very improved condition. He confines himself 
chiefly to fruit trees, but raises some ornamental trees. He has an 
orchard covering 140 acres of land, embracing about 14,000 trees, 
divided equally between apples, pears and peaches. An extensive 
vineyard is also attached to the nursery. Mr. Yeomans makes 
the Dwarf Pear a speciality. Last year he sent to market 170 
bbls., which have been pronounced by competent judges second to 
none in the State. Three years ago he raised 3,000 bushels of 
peaches. The peach crop, however, is generally precarious. He 
has put in something more than 30 miles of draining tiles on about 
175 acres. Mr. Yeomans attributes the peculiar advantages of this 
county as a fruit-growing country to its contiguity to the lake, and 
the hills which abound in this vicinity, which favor it most from 
the fact that there is less exposure to the frost than there is in the 
valleys. Jas. Peacock, in this town in 1865, raised a crop of ap- 



WATNE COUNTY. 61 



pies by which he realized $3,000 from four acres of ground. 
West Wahvorth, (p. v,,) near the south-west corner, contains a 
tannery and about 175 inhabitants, Lincoln is a newly established 
post office in the north-west part. 

The first settlement was begun about 1799. Among the early 
settlers were Andrew Millet in 1799, Dr. Hurlburt Crittenden in 
1804, Stephen Douglass in 1802, who built the first frame building 
in town in 1804. for an inn, which is now occupied by the family 
as a dwelling house ; Deacon Gideon Hackett, James and Jona- 
than Hill, Capt. Gilbert Hinckley, in 1804; and John, Marshall, 
David and Jerry Chamberlin about the same time. Daniel Doug- 
lass, George and Joseph Randolph, at West Walworth; and 
Jones Findley, who is now living in the village, came in 1806. 
Luther Filmore built the first tannery in 1805. Thomas Kemp- 
shall kept the first store. The first death that occurred in the 
town was that of a man named Green, in 1806, who was killed by 
the fall of a tree. The first church, (M. E.,) was organized pre- 
vious to 1809. Mrs. Susan Douglass, wife of Stephen, who built 
the first frame house, is still living in the old homestead. She is 
90 years of age, and enjoys exceeding good health. She works and 
seems as smart almost as ever. She is the oldest inhabitant in the 
town. George Randolph is now living in the village. Andrew 
Millett hung himself He became insane from the belief that the 
wood would soon be cut away, and the world left without fuel in 
consequence. Daniel Douglass was accidentally drowned. Joseph 
Randolph, Deacon Hackett, Jonathan Hill, and Capt. Hinckley 
died natural deaths. The latter moved to and died in Ohio. 



WILJjIAJfSOW, named from Charles Williamson, the 
first agent of the Pulteney Estate, was formed from Sodus, Feb. 
20,1802. Ontario was taken off" in 1807, and Marion in 1825. It 
lies on the northern border of the county, west of the center — Lake 
Ontario forming its northern boundary. Its surface is level in the 
north, with a gentle inclination toward the lake. In the south it 
rises into low ridges. It is drained by a few small streams that 
flow north into Lake Ontario. The soil is a sandy, gravelly loam, 
mixed with clay near the lake shore. Iron ore has been dug here 
to some extent at an earlier day, but has been discontinued. The 
area of the town is 20,543 acres. Its population in 1865 was 2,571. 
It contains 15 school districts, in which are employed 3 male and 
26 female teachers, with an average daily attendance of 314 
scholars. The valuation of school property in the town in 1866 
was $5,050. 

Pultneyville, (p. v.,) named from Sir Wm. Pulteney, situated 
on the lake shore, is a U. S. port of entry in the Genesee District, 
contains a church, (Union,) a grist and planing mill, and about 530 



62 WATJffS COUNTY. 

inhabitants. On the morning of June 13, 1813, Com. Sir James 
Yeo, with a British force, made a descent upon this place. Gen. 
John Swift, who commanded the Americans, surrendered, with the 
stipulation that private property and persons should be respected. 
Most of the U. S. stores had been previously removed to a place of 
safety, so that little loss was sustained. The British had 2 killed 
and 3 wounded. Williamson, (p. v.,) south of the center, contains 
4 churches, (Bapt., M. E. Presb. and W. M.,) a saw mill, and 
about 350 inhabitants. SJast Williamson contains a church, saw mill 
and about 125 inhabitants. 

The first settlement was made in 1803, by Wm. Waters. Capt. 
Samuel Throop, Jeremiah Selby, John Holmes and Alpheus Cur- 
tis, came in 1806; Maj. Wm. Rogers in 1807, and Daniel Pop- 
pins, Timothy Smith, Denning, Andrew Connell, Samuel 

Ledyard, and Jacob W. Hallet, soon after. H. N. Throop was 
the first child born, in Nov. 1807. The first inn was kept by Maj. 
Wm. Rogers, in 1807 ; and the first store by Joseph Colt. Capt.

WOLCOTT, named from Gov. Oliver Wolcott, of Conn., 
was formed from Junius, (Seneca Co.,) March 24, 1807. Butler, 
Huron and Rose were taken off in 1826. It is the north-east cor- 
ner town of the county — Lake Ontario forming its northern boun- 
dary. Its area covers an extent of 21,589 acres. Its surface is 
undulating, with a general inclination toward the lake. In several 
localities are tracts of low marsh land. The streams are Wolcott, 
and Big and Little Red Creeks, and several smaller streams, which 
flow north into Lake Ontario. A part of Port Bay, in the north- 
west, Blind Sodus Bay, (named from the sand bar which stretches 
across its mouth from the west shore) in the north-east, and two 
smaller bays, extend inland from the lake. The soil is a sandy and 
gravelly loam. Iron ore is found in the north-east part, and is 
extensively quarried to supply the furnaces in the town. On Wol- 
cott Creek the water has a perpendicular fall of 40 feet, over Ni- 
agara limestone rock, which presents a very picturesque appear- 
ance, while at the same time it affords a splendid water power to 
the numerous mechanical and manufacturing establishments which 
have been erected upon its borders. The population of the town, 
from census of 1865, was 3,224. It contain 14 schools, employing 
19 teachers, having an average attendance of 467 scholars. The

vent and Bapt.,) a Union Free School, (formerly called " Leaven- 



WAYJSfE COUNT F. 63 



worth Institute," named from Isaac Leavenworth, who contributed 
one-half the total cost,) with 6 teachers and an average attendance 
of 210 scholars; a job printing office, 2 hotels, 2 flouring mills, 2 
saw mills, a furnace and agricultural machine shop, and about 800 
inhabitants. Hed Creek, (p. v.,) in the south- east part, is incorpo- 
rated, and contains 3 churches, (M. E., Bapt. and Presb.,) the Red 
Creek Union Academy, (incorporated by Legislature March 27, 
1839, and by Regents Feb. 5, 1846, and employs 5 teachers,) 2 
grist mills, 2 saw mills, a woolen factory, furnace and tannery, 
and about 600 inhabitants. Furnace Village, in the west part, 
(named from the extensive furnace located here,) contains, besides 
the furnace, a saw mill, and about 80 inhabitants. Owing to finan- 
cial difficulties, the operations at the furnace have been discontinued 
during the past two years. It is being refitted by Messrs. J. K. 
Wagner and John Christopher, who contemplate commencing op- 
erations as soon as the necessary preparations can be completed. 
The ore used in the furnace is quarried in the north-east part of the 
town, where there seems to be an almost inexhaustible supply. 

The settlement of the town was commenced by Jonathan Melvin, 
Sen., on lot 50, in 1805. Among the early settlers were Adonijah 
Church, from Massachusetts, in 1806, and Osgood Church and fajii- 
ily, in 1807. Lambert Woodruflf, in vicinity of Red Creek, bought 
in 1807, and moved in in 1810. Noadiah Child came in 1811, and 
Jacob Snyder, with his family of 10 children, in 1813. Peter, Amos, 
and Thomas Snyder are now living in the town, aged respectively 
72, 65 and 75 years. Hiram Church, who came in 1807, is still 
living in town, about 60 years old. Elisha and William Plank set- 
tled in 1813; the latter is now living in the town, aged 70 years. 
The first death that occurred in town was that of a son of George 
Salmon. The first inn was kept by Obadiah Adams, and the first 
saw and grist mill was built by Jonathan Melvin, in 1810. The 
first settled minister was Daniel S. Buttuckt^The first attempt to 
assess the property in the town was made by Luther Redfleld, As- 
sessor of Junius, who is now living at Clyde in the town of Galen. 
Much difficulty was experienced in doing so, as no roads were con- 
structed at that time, and many of the settlers avowing their determin- 
ation to resist any attempt that might be made to collect taxes, and 
sullenly and doggedly refusing to give the required information to 
enable the Assessor to prosecute his duties. The taxes at that early 
date were meagre and insignificant compared with the enormous 
taxes levied upon communities at the present day.

an act which was approved March 21, to enable the people of the Terri- 
tory to form a Constitution and State Government, in pui'suance of which 
a Government was organized and the Territory admitted as a State by 
Proclamation of the President, October 31, 1864. At the time of its or- 
ganization the Territory possessed a population of 6,857 white settlers. 
The development of her mineral resources was rapid and almost without 
parallel, aad attracted a constant stream of immigration to the Territer3\ 
As the population has not been subject to the fluctuations from which 
other Territories have suffered, the growtJi of Nevada has been rapid aiid 
steady. At the general convention election of 1863, 10,934 votes were cast. 
During 1864 great accessions to the population were made. It is proba- 
bly the richest State in the Union in respect to mineral resources. No re- 
gion in the world is richer in argentiferous leads. It also contains an 
immense basin of salt, five miles square. Quartz mills are a very import- 
ant feature in mining operations. The State is barren for agricultural 
purposes, and is remarkably healthy.

formed by its intersection with the 34th degreeW. from Washington; thence 
due south along said 34th degree of longitude to its intersection with the 
44th degree and 30 minutes of N. L. ; thence due west along said 44th 
degree and 30 minutes of N. L. to a point formed by its intersection with 
tlie crest of the Rocky Mountains ; thence following the crest of the Rocky 
Mountains northward till its intersection with the Bitter Root Mountains ; 
thence northward along the crest of said Bitter Root Mountains to its in- 
tersection with the 39th degree of longitude W. from Washington; thence 
along said 39th degree of longitude northward to the boundary line of the 
British possessions ; thence eastward along said boundary to the 37th 
degree of longitude W. from Washington ; thence southward along said

Stamp Duty,

States Government of claims

CANCELLATION. 

In all cases where an adhesive stamp is 
used for denoting the stamp duty upon an 
instrument, the person using or affixing the 
same must write or imprint thereupon in 
ink the initials of his name, and the date 
(the year, month, and day) on which the 
same is attached or used. Each stamp 
should be separately cancelled. When 
stamps are printed upon checks, &c., so 
that in filling up the instrument, the face of 
the stamp is and must necessarily be writ- 
ten across, no other cancellation will be re- 
quired. 

All cancellation must be distinct and legi- 
ble, and except in the case of proprietary 
stamps from private dies, no method of 
cancellation which differs from that above 
described can be recognized as legal and 
sufficient. 

PENALTIES. 

A penalty of fifty dollars is imposed upon 
every person who makes, signs, or issues, 
or who causes to be made, signed, or issu- 
ed, any paper of any kind or description 
whatever, or who accepts, negotiates, or 
pays, or causes to be accepted, negotiated, 
or paid, any bill of exchange, draft, or or- 
der, or promissory note, for the payment of 
money, without the same being duly stamp- 
ed, or having thereupon an adhesive stamp 
for denoting the tax chargeable thereon, 
cancelled in the manner required by law, 
with intent to evade the provisions of the 
revenue act. 

A penalty of two hundred dollars is im- 
posed upon every person who pays, nego- 
tiates, or offers in payment, or receives or 
takes in payment, any bill of exchange or 
order for the payment of any sum of money 
drawn or purporting to be drawn in a for- 
eign country, but payable in the United 
States, until the proper stamp has been af- 
fixed thereto. 

A penalty of fifty dollars is imposed upon 
every person who fraudulently makes use 
of an adhesive stamp to denote the duty re- 
quired by the revenue act, without eflectu- 
ally cancelling and obliterating the same in 
the manner required by law. 

Attention is particularly called to the fol- 
lowing extract from section 155, of the act 
of June 30, 1864, as amended by the act of 
July 13, 1866 : 

"If any person shall wilfully remove or 
cause to be removed, alter or cause to be al- 
tered, the cancelling or defacing marks on 
any adhesive stamp, with intent to use the 
same, or to cause tne use of the same, after 
it shall have been used once, or shall know- 
ingly or wilfully sell or buy such washed 
or restored stamps, or offer the same for 
gale, or give or expose the same to any per- 



80

son for use, or knowingly use the same or 
prepare the same With intent for the fur- 
ther use thereof, or if any person shall 
knowingly and Without lawful excuse (the 
proof whereof shall lie on the person accus- 
ed) have in his possession any washed, re- 
stored, or altered stamps, which have been 
removed from any vellum, parchment, pa- 
per, instrument or writing, then, and in 
every such case, every person so oflfending, 
and every person knowingly^ and wilfully 
aiding, abetting, or assisting in committing 
any such offence as aforesaid, shall, on con- 
viction thereof, * * * be punished by 
a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars, 
or by imprisonment and confinement to 
hard labor not exceeding five years, or both, 
at the discretion of the court." 

It is not lawful to record any instrument, 
document, or paper required by law to be 
stamped, or any copy thereof, unless a 
stamp or stamps of the proper amount have 
been affixed and cancelled in the manner 
required by law ; and such instrument or 
copy and the record thereof are utterly null 
and void, and cannot be used or admitted as 
evidence in any court until the defect has 
been cured as provided in section 158. 

All wilful violations of the law should be 
reported to the United States District Attor- 
ney within and for the district where they 
are committed. 

GENERAL REMARKS. 

Revenue stamps may be used Indiscrimi- 
nately upon any of the matters or things 
enumerated in Schedule B, except proprie- 
tary and playing card stamps, for which a 
special use has been provided. 

Postage stamps cannot be used in pay- 
ment of the duty chargeable on instru- 
ments. 

The law does not designate which of the 
parties to an instrument shall furnish the 
necessary stamp, nor does the Commission- 
er of Internal Revenue assume to determine 
that it shall be supplied by one party rather 
than by another ; but if an instrument sub- 
ject to stamp duty is issued without having 
the necessary stamps affixed thereto, it can- 
not be recorded, or admitted, or used in ev- 
idence, in any court, until a legal stamp or 
stamps, denoting the amount of tax, snail 
have been affixed as prescribed by law, and 
the person who thus issues it is liable to a 
penalty, if he omits the stamps with an in- 
tent to evade the provisions of the internal 
revenue act. 

The first act imposing a stamp tax upon 
certain specified instruments took effect, so 
far as said tax is concerned, October 1, 1862. 
The impression which seems to prevail to 
some extent, that no stamps are required 
upon any instruments issued in the States 
lately in insurrection, prior to the surren- 
der, or prior to the establishment of collec- 
tion districts there, is erroneous. 

Instruments issued in those States since 
October 1, 1862, are subject to the same tax- 
es as similar ones issued at the same time 
in the other States. 

No stamp is necessary upon an instrument 
executed prior to October 1, 1862, to make 



it admissible in evidence, or to entitle it to 
record. 

Certificates of loan in which there shall 
appear any written or printea evidence of 
an amount of money to be paid on demand, 
or at a time designated, are subject to stamp 
duty as "promissory notes." 

When two or more persons join in the ex- 
ecution of an instrument, the stamp to which 
the instrument is liable under the law, may 
be affixed and cancelled by either of them ; 
and "when more than one signature is affix- 
ed to the same paper, one or more stamps 
may be affixed thereto, representing the 
whole amount of the stamp reqiiired for 
such signatures." 

No stamp is required on any warrant of 
attorney accompanying a bond or note, 
when such bond or note has affixed thereto 
the stamp or stamps denoting the duty re- 
quired ; and, whenever any bond or note is 
secured by mortgage, but one stamp duty is 
reqiuired on such papers— such stamp duty 
being the highest rate required for such in- 
struments, or either of them. In such case 
a note or memorandum of the value or de- 
nomination of the stamp affixed should be 
made upon the margin or in the acknowl- 
edgement of the instrument which is not 
stamped. 

Particular attention is called to the 
change in section 154, by striking out the 
words "or used ;" the exemption thereun- 
der is thus restricted to documents, &c., 
issued by the officers therein named. Also 
to the changes in sections 162 and 158, by 
inserting the words "and cancelled in the 
manner required by law." 

The acceptor or acceptors of any bill of 
exchange, or order for the payment of any 
sum of money, drawn or purporting to be 
drawn in any foreign country, but payable 
in the United States, must, before paying or 
accepting the same, place thereupon a 
stamp indicating the duty. 

It is only upon conveyances of realty sold 
that conveyance stamps are necessary. A 
deed of real estate made vrithout valuable 
consideration need not be stamped as a 
conveyance ; but if it contains Covenants, 
such, for instance, as a covenant to warrant 
and defend the title, it should be stamped 
as an agreement or contract. 

When a deed purporting to be a convey- 
ance of realty sold, and stamped according- 
ly, is inoperative, a deed of confirmation, 
made simply to cure the defect, requires no 
stamp. In such case, the second deed 
should contain a recital of the facts, and 
should show the reasons for its execution. 

Partition deeds between tenants in com- 
mon, need not be stamped as conveyances, 
inasmuch as there is no sale of realty, but 
merely a marking out, or a defining, of the 
boundaries of the part belonging to each ; 
but where money or other valuable consid- 
eration is paid by one co-tenant to another 
for equality of partition, there is a sale to 
the extent of such consideration, and the 
conveyance, by the party receiving it, 
should be stamped accordingly. 

A conveyance of lands sold for unpaid 
taxes, issued since August 1, 18G6, by the 
officers of any county, town, or other mu-

iiicipal corporation in the discliarge of their 
strictly official duties, la exempt from 
stamp tax. 

A cimvoyance of realty sold, subject to a 
mortgage should be stamped according to 
the consideration, or the value of the prop- 
erty unencumbered. The consideration in 
such case is to be found by adding the 
amount paid for the equity of redemption 
to the mortgage debt. The fact that one 
part of the consideration is paid to the 
mortgagor and the other part to the mort- 
gagee does not change the liability of the 
conveyance. 

The stamp tax upon a mortgage is based 
upon I he amount it is given to secure. The 
fact that the value of the property mortgag- 
ed is less than that amount, and that conse- 
quently the security is only partial, does 
not change the liability of the instrument. 
When, therefore, a second mortgage is giv- 
en to secure the payment of a sum of mon- 
ey partially secured hy a prior mortgage up- 
on other property, or when two mortgages 
upon separate property are given at the 
same time to secure the payment of the 
SI me sum, each should be stamped as 
though it were the only one. 

A mortgage given to secure a surety from 
lose, or given for any purpose whatever, 
other than as security for the payment of a 
delluite and certain sum of money, is taxa- 
able only as an agreement or contract. 

The stamp duty upon a lease, agreement, 
memorandum, or coatract for tlie hire, use, 
or rent of any land, tenement, or portion 
thereof, is based upon the annual rent or 
rental value of the property leased, and the 
duty is the same whether the lease be for 
one year, for a term of years, or for the 
fractional part of a year only, 

Upon every assignment or transfer of a 
mortgage, a stamp tax is required equal to 
that imposed upon a mortgage for the 
amount remaining unpaid; this taxis re- 
quired upon every such transfer in writing, 
whether there is a scr^e of the mortgage or 
not ; but no stamp is necessary upon the 
endorsement of a negotiable instrument, 
even though the legal etfectof such indorse- 
ment is to transfer a mortgage by which 
the instrument is secured. 

An assignment of a lease within the mean- 
ing and ilUent of Schedule B, is an assign- 
ment of the leasehold, or of some portion 
thereof, by the lessee, or by some person 
claiming by, from, or under him ; such an 
assignment as subrogates the assignee to 
the rights, or some portion of the rights, of 
the les.'<ee, or of the person standing in his 
place. A transfer by the lessor of his part 
of a lease, neither giving nor purporting 
to give a claim to the leasehold, or to any 
part thereof, but simply aright to the rents, 
itc, is subject to stamp tax as a contract 
or agreement only. 

Tlie siamp tax upon a Are insurance 
policy is based upon the jyreviium. 

Deposit notes taken by a muttial fire in- 
surance company, not as payment of pre- 
mium nor as evidence of indebtedness 
therefor, but to be used simply as a basis 
upon which to make ratable assessments to 
meet the losses incurred by the company, 



should not be reckoned as premium in de- 
termining the amount of stamp taxes upon 
the policies. 

When a policy of insurance properly 
stamped has been issued and lost, no stamp 
is necessary upon another issued by the 
same company to the same party, covering 
the same property, time, &c., and designed 
simply to supply the loss. The second 
policy should recite the loss of the flrst. 

An instrument which operates as the re- 
newal of a policy of insurance, is subject to 
the same stamp tax as the policy. 

When a policy of insurance is issued for 
a certain time, whether it be for one year 
only or for a term of years, a receipt for 
premium or any other instrument which 
has the lejjal effect to continue the contract 
and extend its operation beyond that tinu-, re- 
quires the same amount of revenue stauips 
as the policy itself; but such a receipt as 
is usually given for the payment of the 
monthly, quarterly, or annual premium, is 
not a renewal within the meaning of the 
statute. The payment simply prevents the 
policy from expiring, by reason of non-per- 
formance of its conditions ; a receipt given 
for such a payment requires a two-cent 
stamp, if the amount received exceeds 
twenty dollars, and a two-cent stamp only. 
When, however, the time of payment has 
passed, and a tender of the premium is not 
sufficient to bind the company, but a new 
policy or a new contract in some form, with 
the mutuality essential to every contract, 
becomes necessary between the insurer and 
the insured, the same amount of stamps 
should be used as that required upon the 
original policy. 

A permit issued by a life insurance com- 
pany changing the terms of a policy as to 
travel, resmeuce, occupation, i&c, should 
be stamped as a contract or agreement. 

A bill single or a bill obligatory, i. e., an 
instrument in the form of a promissory 
note, under seal, is subject to stamp duty 
as written or printed evidence of an amount 
of money to be paid on demand or at a 
time designated, at the rate of live cents 
for each one hundred dollars or fractional 
part thereof. 

A waiver of protest, or of demand and 
notice, written upon negotiable pai)or and 
signed by the indorser, is an agreement, 
and requires a live-cent stamp. 

A stamp duty of twenty-five cents is im- 
posed upon the "protest of every note, bill 
of exchange, check or draft," and upon 
every marine protest. If several notes, 
bills of exchange, drafts, &c., are protest- 
ed at the same time and all attached to one 
and the same certificate, stamps should be 
aflixed to the amount of twenty-live cents 
for each note, bill, draft, &c., thus protest- 
ed. 

When a subscription is for a purpose in 
which there is a community of interest 
among the subscribers, the list should be 
stamped as a contract, or agreement, at 
the rate of five cents for each sheet or 
piece of paper upon which it is written. 

When ihere is no community of interest, 
and the subscription is conditional, each 
signer executes a separate contract, requir-

ing its appropriate amount of stamps ; tils 
amount depends upon the number of sheets 
or pieces of paper upon which the contract 
is written. 

When each of the subscribers contracts 
to pay a certain and definite sum of money 
on demand, or at a time designated, the 
separate contract of each should be stamp- 
ed at the same rate as a promissory note. 

When, as is generally the case, the cap- 
tion to a deposition contains other certifi- 
cates in addition to the jurat to the affida- 
vit of the deponent, such as a certificate 
that the parties were or were not notified, 
that they did or Sid not appear, that they 
did or did not object, &c., it is subject to 
a stamp duty of five cents. 

When an attested copy of a writ or other 
process is used by a sheriff or other person 
in making personal service, or in attaching 
property, a five-cent stamp should be affix- 
ed to the certificate of attestation. 

A marriage certificate issued by the offi- 
ciating clergyman or magistrate, to be re- 
turned to any officer of a State, county, city, 
town, or other municipal corporation, to 
constitute part of a public record, rec^uires 
no stamp ; but if it is to be retained by 
the parties, a five-cent stamp should be af- 
fixed. 

The stamp tax upon a bill of sale, by 
which any ship or vessel, or any part there- 
of, is conveyed to or vested in any other 
person or persons, is at the same rate as 
that imposed upon conveyances of realty 
sold ; a bill of sale of any other personal 
property should be stamped as a contract 
or agreement. 

An assignment of real or personal prop- 
erty, or of both, for the benefit of creditors, 
should be stamped as an agreement or con- 
tract. 

Written or printed assignments of agree- 
ments, bonds, notes not negotiable, and 
of all other instruments the assignments 
of which are not particularly specified in 
the foregoing schedule, should be stamped 
as agreements. 

No stamp is necessary upon the registry 
of a judgment, even though the registi-y is 
such in Its legal effect as to create a lien 
which operates as ai mortgage upon the 
property of the judgment debtor. 

When a "power of attorney or proxy for 
voting at any election for officers of any 
incorporated company or society, except 



religious, charitable, or literary societies, 
or public cemeteries," is signed by sever- 
al stockholders, owning separate and dis- 
tinct shares, it is, in its legal efitect, the 
separate instrument of each, and requires 
stamps to the amount of ten cents for each 
and every signature; one or more stamps 
may be used representing the whole amount 
required. 

A notice from landlord to tenant to 
quit possession of premises requires no 
stamp. 

A stamp tax is imposed upon every 
"manifest for custom-house entry or clear- 
ance of the cargo of any ship, vessel, or 
steamer for a foreign port." The amount 
of this tax in each case depends upon the 
registered tonnage of the vessel. 

If a vessel clears in ballast and has no 
cargo whatever, no stamp is necessary; 
but if she has any-however small the amount 
— a stamp should be used. 

A bond to convey real estate requires 
stamps to the amount of twenty-five cents. 

The stamp duty upon the probate of a 
will, or upon letters of administration, is 
based upon the sworn or declared value of 
all the estate and effects, real, personal, 
and mixed, undiminished by the debts of 
the estate for or in respect of which such 
probate or letters are applied for. 

When the property belonging to the es- 
tate of a person deceased, lies under dif- 
ferent jurisdictions and it becomes neces- 
sary to take out letters in two or more 
places, the letters should be stamped ac- 
cording to the value of all the property, real, 
personal, and mixed, for or in respect of 
which the particular letters in each case 
are issued. 

Letters de bonis non should be stamped 
according to the amount of property re- 
maining to be administered upon thereun- 
der, regardless of the stamps upon the orig- 
inal letters. 

A mere copy of an instrument is not sub- 
ject to stamp duty unless it is a certified 
one, in which case a five-cent stamp should 
be affixed to the certificate of the person 
attesting it • but when an instrument is 
executed and issued in duplicate, triplicate, 
&c., as in the case of a lease of two or more 
parts, each part has the same legal effect as 
the other, and each should be stamped as 
an orig

InfallilDle Kules for Detecting Counterfeit or 
Spurious Bank Notes. 



Rule Ist.-Examine the shading of the 
letters in title of Bank called lathewokk, 
which in genuine notes presents an even, 
straight, light and silky appearance, gen- 
erally so fine and smooth as to appear to be 
all in one solid, pale body. In tne counter- 
feit the lines are coarse and irregular, and 
in many of the longer lines breaks will be 
perceived, thus presenting a very inferior 
linish in comparison to genuine work. 

2d.— Observe the dies, circles and ovals 
in the gemaine; they are composed ot a 
network of lines, which, by crossing eacn 
other at certain angles, produce an endless 
variety of figures ; see the one cent stamp 
ATTACHED. The fine line alone is the 
iinit which enables you to detect spurious 
work. In the counterfeit, the bbpbesektbd 
white lines are coarse, irregular, and cross 
each other in a confused, irregular manner, 
thus producing blurred and impejitect 
figures. , „ i - 

3d —Examine the form and features of 
•all human figures on the note. In the gen- 
uine, the texture of the skin is represented 
by fine dots and lines intermixed. In the 
eyes, the pupil is distinctly visible, and the 
white clearly seen ; the nose, mouth and 
chin, well formed, natural and expressive ; 
the lips are slightly pouting, and the chin 
well thrown out ; and the delicate shading 
of the neck perfectly harmonizes with the 
rest of the figure. Observe the fingers and 
toes ; they should be clearly and accurately 
defined. The hair of the head should show 
the fine strands and present a natural ap- 
pearance. The folds of the drapery of hu- 
man figures should lay natural and present 
a fine, finished appearance. In the counter- 
feit the female figure does not bear the 
natural prominence in outlines; observe, 
the eyes and shading surrounding does not 
present the lifelike appearance it should. 
The fingers and toes are not properly and 
proportionately defined ; the hair does not 
bear that soft and finished appearance as in 
the genuine. 

4th.— Examine the imprint or engraver's 
names in the evenness and shape of the 



fine letters. Counterfeits never bear the 
imprint perfect. This rule should be strict- 
ly observed, as it is infallible in detecting 
counterfeits. 

5th. — In the genuine note the landscapes 
are well finished ; trees and shrubs are 
neatly drawn ; the limbs well proportioned, 
and the foliage presenting a fine natural 
appearance ; clear sky is formed of fine 
parallel lines, and when clouds or heavy 
skies appear, they cross each other, and 
bear a soft, smooth and natural appear- 
ance. The perspective, showing a view of 
the surrounding country, is always clear 
and distinct. The small figures in the 
background are always plainly seen, and 
their outlines and general character re- 
cognized. Ships are well defined and the 
canvass has a clear texture ; railroad cars 
are very accurately delineated ; in examin- 
ing a train observe carefully the car most 
distant. In the counterfeit the landscape 
is usually poorly executed ; the leaves oi 
trees poorly and unnaturally defined. — 
The lines representing still wa1;er are 
scratchy rather than parallel, the sky is 
represented generally in like manner, and 
where rolling clouds are to be seen, the 
unnatural efl'ect is obvious. Domestic 
animals are generally poorly executed, 
particularly the head and limbs ; the eyes 
are seldom clearly defined. Ships are 
poorly drawn, the texture of the canvass 
coarse and inferior in style of workman- 
ship, thus giving an artificial appearance. 
Railroad cars are also poorly executed ; the 
car farthest fiom the eye is usually the 
most imperfect. The perspective is always 
imperfect, the figures in the background 
can seldom be recognized. 

(jth. — liills altered from a smaller to a 
higher denomination, can readily be de- 
tected by a close observer, in consequence 
of the striking difference between the parts 
which have been extracted and the rest of 
the note. This dift'erence is readily per- 
ceived in the lack of color, body and finish 
of the dye ; we have seen bills where the 
surrounding shading ia. altered dies was

too dark, but trom the back or finish of the 
white lines yon have a sure test. Again 
observe particularly the words " Five ' ' or 
" Ten Dollars " as the case may be, denot- 
ing the denomination of the note ; the 
parallel outlines and shading (if any) are 
coarse and imperfect. Alterations are fre- 
quently made by pasting a greater denomi- 
nation over a smaller, out by holding the 
bill up to the light, the fraud will be per- 
ceived. Another method resorted to is to 
cut out the figures in the dies as well as 
the words one dollar, or the words two or 
three as the case may be, and with a sharp 
eraser, scrape down the ends and also the 
edges of the pieces to be inserted ; when 
the pieces thus prepared are aflixed they 
are hardly perceivable ; but by passing 
the note through the hand, so as to feel 
the die both with the finger and thumb 
at the same time, the fraud Will be de- 
tected by the stift'ness of the outer 
edges, " occasioned by the gum or method 
adopted" in aflisiug the parts. The letter 
S should alvrays be examined, as in many 
alterations it is pasted or stamped at the 
end of the word " dollar;" and even when 
stamped there, the carrying out of the out- 
lines for its shading will readily show the 
fraud. Bills of broken banks are frequent- 
ly altered by extracting the name of bank, 
state ard town ; they may readily be de- 



tected by observing first the state, second 
the title or name of the bank, third the 
town or location. 

General Remarks in Reference to 
Counterfeits. — The paper on which they 
are printed is generally of a very inferior 
quality. With less body, finish and tough- 
ness than bank note paper has. The ink 
generally lacks the rich luster of the gen- 
uine ; the red letters and figures are gen- 
erally imperfect, and the ink does not pre- 
sent the Vermillion hue as it should. The 
printing is generally inferior, usually ex- 
hibiting specks of white in the most promi- 
nent letters. The date and filling up, and 
the President's and Cashier's names are 
generally ^rritten by the same person, 
although in many instances they present 
a diff'erent appearance. There are bills in 
circulation bearing either genuine dies or 
vignettes ; but upon close examination 
you will be enabled to detect any spurious 
bill, whether coiinterfeit or altered, by the 
instructions here given, if persevered in for 
a short time. We beg to suggest, it time 
will admit, the learner should examine 
minutelj' every bill he receives. A pow- 
erful pocket magnifying glass, which can 
be purchased for from fifty cents to one dol- 
lar at any of the opticians, will greatly en- 
able you to see and comprehend the difi'er- 
ence between genuine and spurious work. 



HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. 



What will my readers give to know how 
to get rich? Now, I will not vouch that 
tlie following rules will enable every per- 
son who may read them to acquire wealth ; 
but this I will answer for, that if ever a 
man does grow rich by honest means, and 
retains his wealth for any length of time, 
he must practice upon the principles laid 
down in the following essay. The re- 
marks are not original with me, but I 
strongly commend them to the attention 
of every young man, at least as aftbrding 
the true secret of success in attaining 
wealth. A single perusal of such an essay 
at an impressible moment, has sometimes 
a very wonderful eS'ect upon the disposi- 
tion and chaiacter. 

Fortune, they say, is a fickle dame — full 
of her freaks and caprices ; who blindly 
distributes her favors without the slightest 
discrimination. So inconstant, so waver- 
ing is she represented, that her most faith- 
ful votaries can place no reliance on her 
promises. Disappointment, they tell us, 
is the lot of those who make oflerings at 



her shrine. Now, all this is a vile slander 
upon the dear blind lady. 

Although wealth often appears the result 
of mere accident, or a fortunate concur- 
rence of favoiable circumstances without 
any exertion of skill or foresight, yet any 
man of sound health and unimpaired mind 
may become wealthy, if he takes the prop- 
er steps. 

Foremost in the list of requisites are 
honesty and strict integrity in every trans- 
action of life. Let a man have the reputa- 
tion of being fair and upright in his deal- 
ings, ani he will possess the confidence of 
all who know him. Without these qualities 
every other merit will prove unavailing. 
Ask concerning a man, " Is he active and 
capable?" Yes. "Industrious, temper- 
ate and regular in his habits ? "—Oh yes. 
"Is he honest? Is he trustworthy?" 
Why, as to that, I am sorry to say that he 
is not to be trusted ; he needs watching ; 
he is a little tricky, and will take an undue 
advantage, if he can. "Then I will have 
nothing to do with him," will be the in- 



86 



HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. 



•variable reply. Why, then, is honesty the 
l)eat /policy ? Because, without it, you will 
get a bad name, and everybody will shun 
yon. 

A character for knavery will prove an in- 
surmountable obstacle to success in al- 
most every undertaking. It will be found 
that the straight line is, in business, as in 
geometry, the shortest. In a word, it is 
almost impossible for a dishonest man to 
acquire wealth by a regular process of bus- 
iness, because he is shunned as a depreda- 
tor upon society. 

Needy men are apt to deviate from the 
rule of integti^, under the plea that ne- 
cessity knows no law ; they might as well 
add that it knows no shame. The course 
is suicidal, and by destroying all confidence, 
ever keeps them immured in poverty, 
although they maj possess every other 
quality for success in the world. 

Punctuality, Which is said to be the soul 
of business, is another important element 
in the art of money getting. The man 
known to be scrupulously exact in the ful- 
fillment of his engagements, gains the 
confidence of all, and may command all 
the means he can use -with advantage ; 
whereas, a man careless arid regardless of 
his promises in money matters will have 
every purse closed against him. Therefore 
be prompt in your payments. 

Next, let us consider the 'advantages of 
a cautious circumspection in oar inter- 
course with the world. Slowness of be- 
lief, and a proper distrust are essential to 
success. The credulous aiM oonfifiing are 
ever the dupes of knaves 'and impostors. 
Ask those who have lost their property 
how it happened, and yoaiwill And in 
most cases that it has been- owing 'to mis- 
placed confidence. One has lost by en- 
dorsing; another by creditijig, another 
by false representations , all of vwhich a 
little more foresight and a little more dis- 
trust would have prevented. In the af- 
fairs of this world men are not saved by 
faith, but by the want of it. 

Judge of men by what they do, no t by 
what they say. Believe in looks rather 
than words. Observe all their movemerrts. 
Ascertain their motives and their ends. 
Notice what they say or do in their un- 
guarded moments, when unJder the influ- 
ence of excitement. The passions have 
been compared to tortures which force men 
to reveal their secrets. Before trusting a 
man, before putting it in his power to 
cause you a loss, possess yourself of every 
available information Telative to him. 
Learn his history, his habits, inclinations 
and propensities ; his reputation for honor, 
industry, frugality and punctuality; his 
prospects, resources, supports, advantages 
and disadvantages ; his intentions and mo- 
tives of action; who are his friends and 
enemies, and whatare his good or bad qual- 
ities. You may learn a man's good qualities 
and advantages from his friends— his bad 
qualities and disadvantages from his ene- 
mies. Make due allowance for exaggeration 
in both. Finally, examine carefully before 
engaging in anything, and act with energy 
afterwards. Have the hundred eyes of 



Argus beforehand, and the hundred hands 
of Briarius afterwards. 

Ordei' and system in the management of 
business must not be neglected. Nothing 
contributes more to dispatch. Have a 
place for everything and everything in its 
place • a time for everything, and every- 
thing in its time. Do first what presses 
most, and having determined what is to Ije 
done, and hcrft it is to be done, lose no 
time in doing it. Without this method all 
is hurry and confusion, little or nothing is 
accomplished, and business is attended to 
With neither pleasure nor profit. 

A polite, aflable depy>rtment is recom- 
mended. Agreeable itfanners contribute 
powerfully to a mail's sticcess. Take two 
men, possessing equal advantages in every 
other respect, but let one be gentlemanly, 
kind, obliging and conciliating in his man- 
ners , the other harsh, rude ana disobliging, 
and the one will become rich, while the 
other will starve. 

We are now to consider a very important 
principle in the business of money-getting, 
namely — Industry — perseveringj indefati- 

fable attention to business. Persevering 
iligence is the Philosopher's stone, which 
turns everything to gold. Constant, regu- 
lar, habitual and systematic apr^lication to 
business, must in time, it properly directed, 
produce great results. ' it must lead to 
wealth, with the same certainty that pov- 
erty follows in the train of idleness and 
inattention. It has been truly remarked 
that he who follows his amusements in- 
stead of his business, will, in a short time, 
have no business to follow. 

The art of money-saving is an iioportant 
part of the art of money-getting. Without 
frugality no one can become rich ; with it, 
few would be poor. Those who consume 
as fast as they produce, are on the road to 
ruin. As most of the poverty We m^eet 
with grows out of idleness and extrava- 
gance, so most large fortunes have been 
the result of habitual industry and frugali- 
ty. The practice of economy is as neces- 
sary in the expenditure of time as of 
money. They say if " we take care of the 
pence the pounds will take care of them- 
selves." So. if we take care of the 
minutes, the days will take care of them- 



The acquisition of wealth demands as 
much self-denial, and as many sacrifices 
of present gratification, as the practice of 
virtue itself. Vice and poverty proceed, in 
some degree, from the same sources, 
namely— the disposition to sacrifice the 
fature to the present ; the inability to fore- 
go a small present pleasure for great future 
advantages. Men fail of fortune in this 
world, as they fail of happiness in the 
world to come, simply because they are un- 
wiliiog to deny themselves momentar}' en- 
joyments for the sake of permanent future 
happiness. 

Every large city is filled with persons, 
who, in order to support the appearance of 
wealth, constantly live beyond their in- 
come, and make up the deficiency by 
contracting debts which are never paid. 
Others, there are, the mere drones of so-

ciety, who pass their days in idlenesB, and 
pnbsist by pirating on the hives of the in- 
dustrious. Many who run a short-lived 
career of splendid beggary, could they be 
but persuaded to adopt a system of rigid 
ecouomy for a few years, miLrht pass the 
remainder of their days in affluence. But 
no ! They must keep up appearances, 
they must live like other folks. 
' Their debts accumulate ; their credit 
fails; they are harassed by duns, and be- 
sieged by constables and sheriff. In this 
extremity, as a last resort, they submit to 
a shameful dependence, or engage in crim- 
inal practices which entail hopeless wretch- 
edness and infamy on themselves and 
families. 



Stick to the business in which yon are 
regularly employed. Let speculators make 
thousands in a year or a day ; mind your 
own regular trade, never turning from it 
to the right hand or to the left. IT you are 
a merchant, a professional man, or a me- 
chanic, never buy lots or stocks, unless 
you have surplus money which you wish 
to invest. Your own business you under- 
stand as well as other men ; but other peo- 
Ele's business you do not understand, 
et your business be some one which is 
useful to the community- All such occu- 
pations possess the elements of profit in 
themselves. 



How to Secure the Public Lands. 

OR THE ENTRY OF THE SAME UNDER THE PRE-EMPTION AND HOMESTEAD 

LAWS. 



The following circular gives all necessary 
information as to the procedure necessary 
in purchasing and securing the public 
lands ; 

Department op the Interior, ) 
Gen'l Land Office, July 19, 1865. j 

Numerous questions having arisen as to 
the mode of procedure to purchase public 
hinds, or acquire title to the same by bounty 
land locations, by pre-emptions or by home- 
stead, this circular is communicated for the 
information of all concerned. 

In order to acquire title to public lands 
the following steps must be taken : 

1. Application must be made to the Reg- 
ister of the district land office in which the 
land desired may be situated. 

A list of all the land offices in the United 
States is furnished by the Department, 
with the seats of the difl'erent offices, 
where it is the duty of the Register and 
Receiver to be in attendance, and give 
proper facilities and information to persons 
desirous of obtaining lands. 

The minimum price of ordinary public 
lands is $1,25 per acre. The even or re- 
served sections falling within railroad 
grants are increased to double the minimum 
price, being $2,50 per acre. 

Lands once ofl"ered at public sale, and not 
afterwards kept out of market by reserva- 
tion, or otherwise, so as to prevent free 
competition, may be entered Or located. 

2. By the applicant filing with the RegiB- 
ter his written application describing the | 



tract, with its area ; the Register will then 
certify to the receiver whether the land is 
vacant, with its price ; and when found to 
be so, the applicant must pay that price 
per acre, or may locate the same with land 
warrant, and thereafter the Receiver will 
give him a " duplicate receipt," which he 
18 required to surrender previous to the 
delivery to him of the patent, which may 
be had either by application for it to tlie 
Register or to the General Land Office. 

3. If the tract has not been offered at 
public sale it is not liable to ordinary pri- 
vate entry, but may be secured by a party 
legally qualified, upon his compliance with 
the requirements of the pre-emption laws 
of 4th September, 1841, and 3d March, 1843; 
and after such party shall have made ac- 
tual settlement for such a length of time 
as will show he designs it for his perma- 
nent home, and is acting in good faith, 
building a house and residing therein, he 
may proceed to the district land office, es- 
tablish his pre-emption claim according to 
law, by proving his actual residence "and 
cultivation, and showing that he is other- 
wise within the purview of these acts. — 
Then he can enter the laud at $1,25, either 
in cash or with bounty land warrant, unless 
the premises should be $2,50 acre lands. 
In that case the whole purchase-money can 
be paid in cash, or one-half in cash, the 
residue with a bounty land warrant. 

4. But if parties legally qualified desire 
to obtain title under the Homestead Act 
of 20th May, 1862, they can do so on com-

plying with the Department Circular, dated 
30th October, 1862. 

5. The law confines Homestead entries 
to surveyed lands ; and although, in cer- 
tain States and Territories noted in the sub- 
joined list, pre-emptors may go on land be- 
fore survey, yet they can only establish their 
claim after return of survey, but must file 
their pre-emption declaration within three 
months after receipt of official plat, at the 
local land-offlce where the settlement was 
made before survey. Where, however, it 
was made after survey, the claimant must 
file within three months after date of set- 
tlement ; and where actual residence and 
cultivation have been long enough to show 



that the claimant has made the land his 
permanent home, he can establish his 
claim and pay for the same at any time 
before the date of the public sale of lands 
within the range in which his settlement 
may fall. 

6. All unofi'ered surveyed lands not ac- 
quired under pre-emption, homestead, or 
otherwise, under express legal sanctioit, 
must be ofi'ered at public sale under the 
President's Proclamation, and struck off to 
the highest bidder, as required by act of 
April 34, 1830.

action. 

40. To say of a person, "Ifhe does not

making the complaint must prove the words 
alleged ; other words of like meaning will 
not suflice.

tion ; and this is such a loss of service'as

43. Addressing to a wife a letter contain-

her husband is a publication, and renders 
the writer amenable to damages.

in law. 

47. A railroad track through the streets is

48 In an action for libel against a news- 
paper, extracts from such newspaper may 
be given to show its circulation, and the 
extent to which the libel has been published. 
The jury, in estimating the damages, are 
to look at the character of the libel, and 
whether the defendant is rich or poor. The 
plaintiffis entitled, in all cases, to his ac- 
tual damages, and should be compensated 
for the mental sufferings endured, the pub- 
lic disgrace inflicted, and all actual discom- 
fort produced. 

49. Delivery of a husband's goods by a 
wife to her adulterer, he having knowledge 
that she has taken them without her hus-

terer.

formed of the existence of impending liti- 
gation, affecting the premises insured, at

to all the property of the guest that he con-

sentative of a deceased person, is presumed, 
in law, to be fully apprized of the extent of 
such representative's authority to act in 
behalf of such estate. 

55. In an action against a railroad com- 
pany, by a passenger, to recover damages 
for injuries sustained on the road, it is not 
compulsory upon the plaintiff to prove ac- 
tual negligence in the defendants ; but it 
is obligatory on the part of the latter to 
prove that the injury was not owing to any 
fault or negligence of theirs. 

56. A guest is a competent witness, In an 
action between himself and an inn-keeper, 
to prove the character and value of lost 
personal baggage. Money in a trunk, not 
exceeding the amount reasonably required 
iby the traveler to defray the expenses of 
the journey which he has undertaken, is a 
part of his baggage ; and in case of its loss, 
while at any inn, the plaintiff may prove its 
amount by his own testimony. 

57. The deed of a minor is not absolutely 
void. The court is authorized to judge, 
from the instrument, whether it is void or 
not, according to its terms being favorable 
or unfavorable to the interests of the minor. 



58. A married woman can neither sue nor 
be sued on any contract made by her dur- 
ing her marriage, except in an action relat- 
ing to her individual property. The action 
must be commenced either by or agaiust 
her husband. It is only when an action 
is brought on a contract made by her be- 
fore her man'iage, that she is to be joined 
as a co-platutifi, or defendant, with her hus- 
band. 

59. Any contract made with a person ju- 
dicially declared a lunatic is void. 

60. Money paid voluntarily in any trans- 
action, with a knowledge of the facts, can- 
not be recovered. 

61. In all cases of special contract for ser- 
vices, except in the case of a minor, the 
plaintiff can recover only the amount stip- 
ulated in the contract. 

62. A wife is a competent vritness with 
her husband, to prove the contents of a lost 
trunk, or when a party. 

63. A wife cannot be convicted of receiv- 
ing stolen goods when she received them 
of her husband. 

64. Insurance against fire, by lightning or 
otherwise, does not cover loss by lightning 
when there is no combustion. 

65. Failure to prove plea of justification, 
in a case of slander, aggravates the offence. 

66. It is the agreement of the parties to 
sell by sample that constitutes a sale by 
sample, not the mere exhibition of a speci- 
men of the goods. 

67. An agent is liable to Ms principals 
for loss caused by his misstatements, tho' 
unintentional. 

68. Makers of promissory notes given in 
advance for premiums on policies of insur- 
ance, thereafter to be taken, are liable there-

offered for lost property, has a lien upon the 
property for the reward : but only when a 
definite reward is offered. 

73. Confession by a prisoner must be vol- 
untarOy made, to constitute evidence against 
him. * 

74. The defendant in a suit must be serv- 
ed with process ; but service of such pro- 
cess upon his wife, even in his absence from 
the StatCj is not, in the absence of statuto- 
ry provisions, sufficient.

75. The measure of damages in trespass 
for cutting timber, is its value as a chattel 
on the land where it was felled, and not the 
market price of the lumber manufactured. 

76. To support an indictment for mali- 
cious mischief in killing an animal, mal- 
ice towards its owner must be shown, not 
merely passion excited against the animal 
itself. 

77. No action can be maintained against 
a sheriff for omitting to account for money 
obtained upon an execution within a reas- 
onable time. He has till the return day to 
render such account. 

78. An interest in the profits of an enter- 
prise, as profits, renders the party hold- 
ing it a partner in the enterprise, and 
makes him presumptively liable to share 
any loss. 

79. Males can marry at fourteen, and fe- 
males at twelve years of age. 

80. All cattle found at large npon any pub- 
lic road, can be driven by any person to the 
public pound. 

81. Any dog chasing, barking, or other- 
wise threatening a passer-by in any street, 
lane, road, or other public thoroughfare, 
may be lawfully killed for the same. 

82. A written promise for the payment 
of such amount as may come into the hands 
of the promisor, is held to be an instru- 
ment in writing for the payment of money. 

83. The declaration of an agent is not ad- 
missible to establish the fact of agency. — 
But when other proper evidence is given, 
tending to establish the fact of agency, it 
is not error to admit the declarations of the 
agent, accompanying acts, though tend- 
ing to show the capacity in which he act- 
ed. When evidence is competent in one 
respect and incompetent in another, it is 
the duty of the court to admit it, and con- 
trol its elfects by suitable instructions to 
the jury. 

84. The court has a general power to re- 
move or suspend an attorney for such im- 
moral conduct as rendered him unworthy 
of confidence in his oflScial capacity. 

85. Bankruptcy is pleadable in bar to all 
actions and in all courts, and this bar may 
be avoided whenever it is interposed, by 
showing fraud in the procurement of the 
discharge, or a violation of any of the pro- 
visions of the bankrupt act. 

86. An instrument in the form of a deed, 
but limited to take efifect at the termination 
of the grantor's natural life, is held to be .a 
deed, not a will. 

87. A sale will not be set aside as fraud- 
ulent, simply because the buyer was at the 
time unable to make the payment agreed 
npon, and knew his inability, and did not 
intend to pay. 

88. No man is under an obligjation to 
make known his circumstances wnen he is 
buying goods. 



89. Contracting parties are bound to dis- 
close material facts known to each, but of 
which either supposes the other to be igno- 
rant, only when they stand in some special 
relation of trust and confidence in relation 
to the subject matter of the contract. But 
neither will be protected if he does any- 
thing, however slight, to mislead or deceive 
the other. 

90. A contract negotiated by mail is 
formed when notice of acceptance of the of- 
fer is duly deposited in the post-oflice, pro- 
perly addressed. This rule applies, although 
the party making the oft'er expressly re- 
quires that if it IS accepted, speedy notice 
of acceptance shall be given him. 

91. The date of an instrument is so far a 
material part of it, that an alteration of the 
the date by the holder after execution, 
makes the instrument void. 

92. A corporation may maintain an action 
for libel, for words published of them and 
relating to its trade or business, by which 
it has incurred special damages. 

93. It is unprofessional for a lawyer who 
has abandoned his case without trying it, 
a term or. two before trial, to claim a fee 
conditional upon the success of his client, 
although his client was successful. 

94. Although a party obtaining damages 
for injuries received tnrough the default of 
another, was himself guilty of negligence, 
yet that will not defeat his recovery, unless 
his negligence contributed to cause the in- 
jury- 
OS. A person may contract to labor for an- 
other during life, in consideration of receiv- 
ing his support ; but his creditors have the 
right to inquire into the intention with 
which such arrangement is made, and it will 
be set aside if entered into to deprive them 
of his future earnings. 

96. A grantor may by express terms ex- 
clude the bed of a river, or a highway, 
mentioned as boundary ; but if without 
language of exclusion a line is described as 
' along, or ' upon,' or as ' running to ' the 
highway or river, or as ' by,' or ' running to 
the bank of the river; these expressions 
carry the grantee to the center of the high- 
way or river. 

97. The court will take pains to construe 
the words used in a deed in such a way as 
to eft'ect the intention of the parties, how- 
ever unskillfully the instrument may be 
drawn. But a court of law cannot exchange 
an intelligible word plainly employed in a 
deed for another, however evident it may 
be that the word used was used by mistake 
for another. 

98. One who has lost his memory and 
understanding is entitled to legal protec- 
tion, whether such loss is occasioned hy 
his own misconduct or by an act of Provi- 
dence.

99. When a wife leaves her husband vol- 
untarily, it must be shown, in order to 
make him liable for necessaries famished 
to her, that she could not stay with safety. 
Personal violence, either threatened or in- 
flicted, will be sufficient cause for such sep- 
aration. 

100. Necessaries of dress furnished to a 
discarded wife must correspond with the 
pecuniary circumstances of the husband, 
and be such articles as the wife, if prudent, 
would expect, and the husband should 
furnish, if the parties lived harmoniously 
together. 

101 . A fugitive from justice from one of the 
United States to another, may be arrested

quest of " wearing apparel," nor of 
" household furniture and articles for fami-

tling or compounding a prosecution for a 
supposed felony, cannot be recovejfed back 
by a party paying it. 

104. An innkeeper is liable for the death 
of an animal in his possession, but may free 
himself from liability by showing that the 
death was not occasioned by negligence on 
his part. 

105. Notice to the agent of a company is 
notice to the company. 

106. An employer is not liable to one of 
his employees for an injury sustained by the 
latter in consequence of the neglect of oth- 
ers of his employees engaged m the same 
general business. 

107. Where a purchaser at a Sheriff's sale 
has bid the full price of property under 
the erroneous belief that the sale would di- 
vest the property of all liens, it is the duty 
of the court to give relief by setting aside 
the sale. 

108. When notice of protest is properly 
sent by mail, it may be sent by the mail of 
the day of the dishonor, if not, it must be 
mailed for the mail of the next day ; ex- 
cept that if there is none, or it closes at an 
unseasonably early hour, then notice must 
be mailed in season for the next possible 
mail. 

109. A powder-house located in a populous 
part of a city, and containing large quanti- 
ties of gunpowder, is a nuisance. 

110. When the seller of goods accepts at 
the time of the sale, the note of a third per- 
son, unindorsed by the . purchaser, in pay- 
ment, the presump'tion is that the pay- 
ment was intended to be absolute ; and 
though the note should be dishonored, the 
purchaser will not be liable for the value of 
the goods. 



111. A man charged with crime before a 
committing magistrate, but discharged on 
his o^vn recognizance, is not privileged 
from arrest on civil process while returning 
from the magistrate's office. 

113. When one has been induced to sell 
goods by means of false pretences, he can- 
not recover them from one who has bona 
fide purchased and obtained possession of 
them from the fraudulent vendor. 

113. If the circumstances attendant upon 
a sale and delivery of personal property are 
such as usually and naturally accompany 
such a transaction, it cannot be declared a 
legal fraud upon creditors. 

114. A stamp impressed upon an instru- 
ment by way of seal, is good as a seal, if it 
cre.ates a durable impression in the texture 
of me paper. 

115. If a party bound to make a payment 
use due diligence to make a tender, but 
through the payee's absence from home is 
unable to find him or any agent authorized 
to take payment for him, no forfeiture will 
be incurred through his failure to make a 
tender.

square, 40 acres. 

The sections are numbered from one to 
thirty-six, commencing at the northeast

The sections are aU divided in quarters, 
which are named by the cardinal points, 
as in section one. The quarters are divi- 
ded in the same way. The description of 
a 40 acre lot would read : The south half 
of the west half of the southwest quarter 
of section 1 in townshij) 24, north of range 
7 west, or as the case might be ; and some- 
times will fall short, and sometimes overrun 
the number of acres it is supposed to con- 
tain.

Discount and Premium. { 

When a person buys an article for $1,00 — 
20 per cent off, (or discount,) and sells it 
again for $1,00, he makes a profit of 25 per 
cent, on his investment. Thus : He pays 
80 cents and sells for $1,00— a gain of 20 
cents, or 25 per cent of 80 cents. And for 
any transaction where the sale or purchase 
of gold, silver, or currency is concerned, 
the following rules will apply in all cases. 

Rule 1st. — To find premium when dis- 
count is given : Multiply 100 by rate of 
discount and divide by 100, less rate of dis- 
count. 

Rule 2d.— To find discount when pre- 
mium is given.' Multiply the rate of interest 
by 100, and divide by 100, plus the rate of 
premium. 

Suppose A has $140 in currency, which 
he wishes to exchange for gold, when gold 
is 27 per cent, premium, now much gold 
should he receive ? In this case the pre- 
mium is given, consequently we must find 
the discount on A's currency and subtract 
it from the $140, as per rule 2d, showing 
the discount to be a tnfle more than 21 per 
cent, and that he should receive $110,60 in 
gold.

In large cities nothing is more common 
than to see large business establishments, 
which seem to nave an immense advantage 
over all competitors, by the wealth, expe- 
rience, and prestige they have acquired, 
drop gradually out of public view, and be 
succeeded by firms of a smaller capital, 
more energy, and more determined to have 
the fact that they sell such and such com- 
modities known from onaend of the land to 
the other. In other worcls, the establish- 
ments advertise ; the old die of dignity.— 
The former are ravenous to pass out of ob- 
scurity into publicity ; the latter believe 
that their puolicity is so obvious that it 
cannot be oljscured. The first understand 
that they must thrust themselves upon 
public attention, or be disregarded ; the 
second, having once obtained public atten- 
tion, suppose they have arrested it perma- 
nently, while, in fact, nothing is more char- 
acteristic of the world than the ease with 
which it forgets. 

Stephen Girard, than whom no shrewder 
business man ever lived, used to say : I 
have always considered advertising liber- 
ally and long to be the great medium of 
success in business, and the prelude to 
wealth. And I have made it an Invariable 
rule too, to advertise in the dullest times 
as well as the busiest, long experience 
having taught me that money thus spent is 
well laid out ; as by keeping my business 
continually before the public it has secured 
me many sales that I would otherwise have 
lost.

annual advertising bills of one London firm 
are said to amount to $200,000 ; and three 
others are mentioned who each annually 
expend for the purpose $50,000. The ex-

MIS CELL ANEO US. 



Brilliant W^blte-crasli. 

Many have heard of the brilliant stucco 
whitewash on the east end of the Presi- 
dent's house at Washington. The follow- 
ing is a recipe for it ; it is gleaned from the 
National Intelligencer, with some addi- 
tional improvements learned by experi- 
ments. Take half a bushel of nice un- 
slacked lime, slack it with boiling water, 
cover it during th^rocess to keep in the 
steam. Strain the liquid through a fine 
sieve or strainer, and add to it a peck of 
salt, previously well dissolved in warm wa- 
ter ; three pounds of ground rice, boiled to 
a thin paste, and stirred in boiling hot ; half 
a pound of powdered Spanish whiting, and 
a pound of clean glue, which has been pre- 
viously dissolved by soaking it well, and 
then hanging it over a slow fire, in a small 
kettle within a large one filled with water. 
Add five gallons of hot water to the mixture, 
stir it well, and let it stand a few days cov- 
ered from the dirt. 

It should be put on right hot ; for this 
purpose it can be kept in a kettle on a 
portable furnace. It is said that about a 
pint of this mixture will cover a square 
yard upon the outside of a house if proper- 
ly applied. Brushes more or less may be 
used according to the neatness of the job 
required. It answers as well as oil paint 
for wood, brick or scone, and is cheaper. 
It retains its brilliancy for many years. 
There is nothing of the kind that will 
compare with it, either for inside or outside 
walls. 

Coloring matter may be put in and made 
of any shade you like. Spanish brown 
stirred in will make red pink, more or less 
deep according to the quantity. A delicate 
tinge of this is very pretty, for inside walls. 
Finely pulverized common clay, well mixed 
with Spanish brown, makes a reddish stone 
color. Yellow-ochre stirred in makes yel- 
low wash, but chrome goes farther, and 
makes a color generally esteemed prettier. 
In all these cases the darkness of the shades 
of course is determined by the quantity of 
coloring used. It is difficult to make rales, 
because tastes are different. It would be 
best to try experiments on a shingle and let 
it dry. We have been told that green must 
not be mixed with lime. The lime de- 
stroys the color, and the colftr has an effect 
on the whitewash, which makes it crack 
and peel. When walls have been badly 
smoked, and you wish to have them a clean 
white, it is well to squeeze indigo plenti- 
fully through a bag into the water you use, 
before it is stirred in the whole mixture. 
If a larger quantity than five gallons be 
wanted, the same proportion should be ob- 
served. 



TlOTT to get a Horse out of a 
Fire. 

The great difficulty of getting horses from 
a stable where surrounding buildings are in 
a state of conflagation, is well kno^vn. — 
The plan of covering their eyes with a blan- 
ket wiU not always succeed. 

A gentleman whose horses have been in 
great peril from such a cause, having tried 



in vain to save them, hit upon the expedi- 
ent of having them harnessed as though go- 
ing to their usual work, when, to his aston- 
ishment, they were led from the stable 
without difficulty. 



Tbe Cliemical Barometer. 

Take a long narrow bottle, such as an old- 
fashioned Eau-de-Cologne bottle, and put 
into it two and a half drachms of camphor, 
and eleven drachms of spirits of wine ; 
when the camphor is dissolved, which it 
will readily do by slight agitation, add the 
following mixture: Take water, nine 
drachms ; nitrate of potash (saltpetre) 
thirty-eight grains ; and muriate of am- 
monia (sal ammoniac) thirty-eight grains. 
Dissolve these salts in the water prior to 
mixing with the camphorated spirit ; then 
shake the whole well together. Cork the 
bottle well, and wax the top, but after- 
wards make a very small aperture in the 
cork with a red-hot needle. The bottle may 
then be hung up^ or placed in any stationa- 
ry position. By observing the different 
appearances which the materials assume, 
as the weather changes, it becomes an ex- 
cellent prognosticator of a coming storm or 
of a sunny sky. 



I<eecli Barometer. 

Take an eight ounce phial, and put in it 
three gills of water, and'place in it a healthy 
leech, changing the water in summer once 
a week, and in winter once in a fortnight, 
and it wUl most accurately prognosticate 
the weather. If the weather is to be fine, 
the leech lies motionless at the bottom of 
the glass and coiled together in a spiral 
form ; if rain may be expected, it will creep 
up to the top of its lodgings and remain 
there tUl the weather is settled ; if we are 
to have wind, it wiU move through its habi- 
tation with amazing swiftness, and seldom 
goes to rest tUl it begins to blow hard ; if a 
remarkable storm of thunder and rain is to 
succeed, it wiU lodge for some days before 
almost continually out of the water, and 
discover great uneasiness in violent throes 
and convulsive-like motions ; in frost as in 
clear summer-like weather it lies constantly 
at the bottom ; and in snow as in rainy 
weather it pitches its dweUing in the very 
mouth of the phial. The top should be cov- 
ered over with a piece of muslin. 



To Measitbb Gbain in a Bin.— Find the 
number of cubic feet, from which deduct 
one-fifth. The remainder is the number of 
bushels — allowing, however, one bushel 
extra to every 231. Thus in a remainder of 
234 there would be 225 bushels. In a re- 
mainder of 448 there would be 450 bushels, 
&c.

EXPLANATION TO 

Storrs' Condensed Interest Table, at 7 Per Cent. 

ONE DOLLAR TO NINE THOUSAUfD. ONE DAY TO SIX YEARS. 

The interest in the table is in all cases computed for the thousands, for the time des- 
ignated. To determine interest for a less sum, as many figures should be pointed oflT 
from the right of the product as are pointed off from the tnouBands in the column of 
principals. For instance— the interest on $5jQD0 for ten months is $291 67. For $500, 
the figure 7 to the right should be pointed oflfleaving $29,16,7 as the interest on $500 
for the same time. For $50, the figure 6 must be pointed off, and the figures at the left 
represent the interest, and so on for smaller sums. By annexing a 0, you have the inter- 
est for $50,000,

PUBLISHER'S NOTICES. 



Ames National Business Col- 
lege, Syracuse. During a recent visit 
to SjTacuse, we had the pleasure of visiting 
the Business College, under the charge of 
Prof D. T. AMES. While we expected to 
find an institution of a high order, and en- 
Joying a large degree of prosperity, we were 
not prepared to witness so high a degree of 
perfection as we found prevailing m the 
various departments of this Institution. — 
Three large halls are occupied for the de- 
partments. One exclusively as a Theory 
Department for the collegiate course, vsdth 
a recitation room adjacent for recitations 
in phonography and other branches. An- 
other large hall is furnished with banks, 
business offices and other necessary appli- 
ances for carrying into practice the details 
of actiial business as applied to the various 
kinds of trade and commerce. This room 
is beau.tifully adorned with many of the 
most beautiful and perfect specimens of 
penmanship we have ever seen ; many of 
which have received the first premiums at 
several State and International Fairs. An- 
other spacious apartment is devoted exclu- 
sively to the art and science of telegraph- 
ing. Thirteen instruments of the most 
perfect pattern are constantly in operation, 
furnishing facilities for instruction to over 
one hundred students, while two experi- 
enced and successful operators are con- 
stantly employed as instructors, making 
the Telegraphic Institute, in our estimation 
the most complete and perfect in the world. 
We learned from the Register, that diiring 
the past season over five hundred students 
had been in attendance in the different de- 
partments of the institution ; among whom 
were representatives from nearly every 
State in the Union, as well as many from 
the Canadas. Our visit to the institution 
has convinced us that the thoroughness of 
the organization of each of the several de- 
partments, and the efficient manner in 
which the .several branches are taught, 
places this institution far beyond the com- 
petition of any similar institution in the 
country. We should certainly recommend 
youn» ladies and gentlemen wishing to per- 
fect themselves in any of the branches there 
taught, to address the President, before 
making application elsewhere, for the Col- 
lege Journal, which is published monthly 
by the Faculty, and will be found an inter- 
esting and profitable paper for any young 
lady or gentleman, even though they may 
not expect to become patrons of the insti- 
tution. When we take into consideration 
the central location and convenience of ac- 
cess, the enterprise and thrift of the Cen- 
tral City, added to the great advantages of- 
fered by the institution, we can but predict 
its permanent and entire success. See ad- 
vertisement on page 101. 

J. Strauss, Merchant Tailor at Clyde, 
can suit any taste as to style or price. His 
goods are manufactured from the best 

frades of cloth to be found in the market, 
y experienced workmen. No better place 
can be found at which to " dress up." See 
card, page 116. 



The liyons Republican, published 
by Wm. T. Tinsley, Esq., is deservedly a 
popular sheet. Making its appearance, as 
it does, once a week, it'is a welcome visitor 
in the families of a large ntimber of the in- 
habitants of Wayne county. The Republi- 
can affords very superior advantages as an 
advertising medium, and the office is sup- 
plied with tjrpe and presses suitable for do- 
ing job printing in any style desired. See 
card, page 118. 

James Forfar, Lumber Dealer and 
proprietor of planing mill at Lyons, pub- 
lishes an advertisement on page 123, which 
we refer to all in want of lumber, timber, 
lath or shingles for any purpose desired. 
His terms are always low as the market 
wUl afford, and customers wUl find that he 
keeps all he advertises. 

The Clyde Times, James M. Scar- 
ritt, Esq., publisher, a radical Republican 
journal, is issued every Thursday, and is 
liberally supported by a very large list of 
subscribers. The paper is large and tJ^50- 

fraphically neat in appearance. Since Mr. 
carritt's advent in Clyde, the paper has 
gained an enviable reputation, and it is 
now one of the "pillars " of Wayne Co. re- 
publicanism. As an advertising medium it 
is deserving of the extensive patronage it 
enjoys. The job department has been re- 
plenished with a large amount of new ma- 
terial, and, what with first class composi- 
tors and good presses,Mr. Scarritt continues 
to turnout jobs equal to city work. Give 
him a caU. See card, page 125. 

N. Zeigler, at the "New York Store " 
in Lyons, has the name of keeping one of 
the finest stores in this section of the State, 
and which has become a fashionable resort 
for those ladies and others who are in 
search for any of the latest novelties in the 
line of Dry Goods. His attentive clerks are 
ever ready to attend to the wants of his 
customers. Give him a call and l^m the 
truth of our statement. See card, page 
114. 

Pease & Co., of the "Central Photo- 
graph Gallery," Newark, are fully prepared 
to get up pictures in the finest style of the 
art. Mr. Pease has had many years expe- 
rience in the practice of his art in the city of 
Utica, and in leadinggaUeries in other sec- 
tions of the State. His gallery is fitted up 
with a ground glass sky-light, rendering it 
superior to many others. See card, page 
108. 

R. G. IjOTvery, Surgeon Dentist at 
Lyons, though a new aspirant in this county, 
to the honors of his profession, has by the 
superior quality of his work, shown him- 
se& to be an expert in the art of dentistry. 
His practice elsewhere has made him de- 
serving the confidence and patronage of 
those m need of his services. See card, 
page 108.

"W. D. Perrlne & Soil) watchmakers 
and Jewelers, and. dealers in Sewing Ma- 
chines on Broad street, Lyons, have for 
many years heen " leaders " in their line of 
trade. They keep fully stocked with all the 
riQh and rare articles in the jewelry line. 
As skillful repairers for either watch work 
or jewelry, they are of the first class. See 
cards, pages 2 and 158. 

Trajcy & Crreenwood, at Newark, 
are extensive manufacturers of Grain Drills, 
Wheel Cultivators, Plaster Sowers, Plows, 
and agricultural implements generally, they 
are experienced workmen, and their ma- 
chines are all of them, among the best in 
market. The farmers of Wayne county 
will do well to give them a call. See card, 
page 3. 

E. D. liangdon, Proprietor of the 
"Railroad House," at Newark, (near the De- 
pot,) has by unifonn kindness to guests and 
reasonable charges, won hosts of friends. 
He keeps a number of good horses and car- 
riages for the use of travelers, and Mr. 
" Tom" Langdon is always on hand to at- 
tend to the calls of customers. See card, 
page 102. 

We are personally acquainted with Mr. 
A.C. Bartle, ofNewark,N. Y., and know 
manufacturers of whom he purchases his 
stock, and can stake our reputation upon 
any guarantees he may make to his custo- 
mers. He does not resort to any tricks to 
secure trade. Whatever he may promise 
customers wiU be fulfilled; he is a one 



price man, and sells for cash only. Custom- 
ers will get full measurement, and one man's 
money as good as another's. His machinery 
is of latest improved patents. Whatever 
he tells a customer he can rely upon. See 
card, page 1. 



Tbos. E. Smitli, Manufacturer and 
dealer in Furniture and Upholstering goods, 
at No. 32 Seneca Street, Geneva, Ontario 
county, is justly known as one of the larg- 
est dealers in his class of goods in Central 
or Western New York. It is almost worth 
a trip to Geneva, to inspect his rooms. The 
main building has four floors, 40 feet front 
by 200 feet deep. This is connected with 
the manufactory in the rear, which is 35 by 
100 feet, and yet back of this is a large lum- 
ber yard, and two extensive storehouses 
for the reception of duplicate goods. 

Mr. Smith is noted as being constantly 
supplied with good §oods of all styles and 
descriptions, and which he offers at prices 
so low, that his customers live in many 
counties/ the per-centage saved to them 
being enough to richly pay them the ex- 
pense of a trip to his store. See advertise- 
ment, page 124. 



J. H. Doxird, Photographer, at New- 
ark, is an artist of merit. His rooms are fit- 
ted up with taste, and he is supplied with 
improved instruments. We would recom- 
mend him to public patronage. We have 
seen several very fine views of buDdings, 
machinery, &c., taken by him. See card,

THE DECIMAL SYSTEM 



OP 



WEIGHTS ANT) MEASURES. 

As authorized by Act of Congress—Approved July 28, 1866; 



STANDARDS; 

In every system of Weights and Measures, 
it is necessary to have what are called 
" Standards," as the pound, yard, gallon, 
&c., to he divided and multiplied into smal- 
ler and larger parts and denominations. — 
The definition and construction of these 
Standards involve philosophical and scien- 
tific principles of a somewhat abstruse char- 
acter, and are made and procured by the 
legislative department of the government. 
The nominal Standards in the new system 
are the Meter, the Are, the Liter, and 
the Gram. The only real Standard, the 
one by which all the other Standards are 
measured, and from which the system de- 
rives its name of " Metric," is the Meter. 

THE METER 

Is used for all measures of length, distance) 
breadth, depth, heighth, &c., and was in- 
tended to be, and is very nearly, one ten- 
millionth of the distance on the earth's sur- 
face from the equator to the pole. It is 
about 39% inches, or 3 feet, 3 inches and 3 
eights, and is to be substituted for the yard. 

THE ARE 

Is a surface whose side is ten Meters, and 
is equal to 100 square Meters or about 4 
square rods. 

THE LITER 

Is the imit for measuring solids and capaci- 
ty, and is equal to the contents of a cube 
whose edge is one-tenth of a Meter. It is 
about equal to one quart, and is a standard 
in cubic, dry and liquid measures. 



1^" A cubic Meter (or Kiloliter) is called 
a stere, and is also used as a standard in cer- 
tain cubic measures. 

THE GRAM 

Is the unit of weight, and is the weight of a 
cube of pure water, each edge of the cube 
being one one-hundredth of a Meter. It is 
about equal to 15>^ grains. It is intended 
as the standard in all weights, and with its 
divisions and multiples, to supersede the 
use of what are. now called Avoirdupois, 
Apothecaries and Troy weights. 

Each of the foregoing Standards is divi- 
ded decimally, and larger units are [also 
formed by multiples of 10, 100, &c. The 
successive subordinate parts are designated 
by the prefixes Deci, Centi and MiBi, the 
successive multiples by Deka, Hecto, Kilo 
and Myria, each having its own numerical 
signification, as will be more clearly seen 
in the tables hereinafter given. 

The terms used may, at first sight, have 
a formidable appearance, seem difiicult to 
pronounce, and to retain in memory, and to 
be, therefore, objectionable; but with a lit- 
tle attention and use, the apprehended diffi- 
culty will be found more apparent than real, 
as has been abundantly proved by expe- 
rience. The importance, also, of conformi- 
ty in the use of commercial terms, on the 
part of the United States, with the practice 
of the many nations in which the system, 
with its present nomenclature, has already 
been adopted, must greatly overbalance the 
comparatively slight objection alluded to.

RULE FOR ALL INTEREST. 

Summary of Directions, for workins Interest of ant conceivable Principal, 
Time, and Kate. 

fractional part of such cents or hnndredths 
When the time is months and days, or 
years, months and days, reduce the years 
to months, and add in all the given montlis ; 
then reduce the days to the fractional part 
of a month, and annex this fraction to the 
whole number of months ; reduce all to an 
improper fraction, and place the numerator 
on the right, and the denominator on the 
left. In such case, divide by 12 only. If 
the time cannot be reduced to the fractional 
part of a month, reduce the whole time, 
years, months and days, to days, and divide 
by 30 and 12. 

If the time is years and months, reduce 
the months to the fractional part of a year ; 
add to the years ; reduce all to an imjjroper 
fraction, and divide by the denominator 
only. 



Place the Principal, Time, and Bate, on 
the right of a vertical line; and if the 
time is days, place 30 and 12 on the left : if 
the time is months, place 12 only, on {he 
left ; and if the time is years, place nothing 
on the left. 

If the Principal, Time, or Rate is a mixed 
number, reduce it to an improper fraction, 
and place the numerator on the right, with 
the denominator on the left. 

When the Principal is dollars, the answer 
is cents ; in such case, two figures must be 
cut off for cents ; when the Principal is 
cents, the answer is hundredths of cents ; 
here, cut off two figures, commencing at the 
right, for hundredths, two more for cents, 
and the remainder at the left is dollars. — 
The figures thus cut off for cents, hun- 
dredths, &c., must be whole numbers ; 
while any existing fraction will only be a

HoTT to Judge a Horse. 

A correspondent, contrary to old maxims, 
undertakes to judge the character of a horse 
by outward apj)earance8, and ofiers the fol- 
lowing suggestions, the result of his close 
observation and long experience : 

If the color be light sorrell, or chestnut, 
his feet, legs and face white, these are 
marks of kindness. If he is broad and full 
between the eyes, he may be depended on 
as a horse of good sense, and capable of be- 
ing trained to anything. 

As respects such horses, the more kindly 
you treat them the better you will be treat- 
ed in return. Nor wiU a horse of this des- 
cription stand a whip, if well fed. 

If you want a safe horse, avoid one that 
is dish-faced. He may be so far gentle as 
not to scare ; but he will have too much go- 
ahead in him to be safe with everybody. 

If you want a fool, but a horse of great 
bottom, get a deep bay, with not a white 
hair about him. If his face is a little dish- 
ed, so much the worse. Let no man ride 
such a horse that is not an adept in riding 
— they are always tricky and unsafe. 



If you want one that wUl never give out, 
never buy a large, overgrovm one. 

A black horse cannot stand heat, nor a 
white one cold. 

If you want a gentle horse, get one with 
more or less white about the head ; the 
more the better. Many persons suppose 
the parti-colored horses belonging to the 
circuses, shows, &c., are selected for their 
oddity. But the selections thus made are 
on account of their great docility and gen- 
tleness. 

To Thosb who White foh the Pbess.— 
It would be a great favor to editors and 
printers should those who write for the 
Press observe the following rules. They 
are reasonable, and our correspondents 
will regard them as such :— 1. Write with 
black ink on white paper, wide ruled. 2. 
Make the pages small, one-fourth that of 
a foolscap sheet. 3. Leave the second 
page of each sheet blank. 4. Give to the 
written page an ample margin all around. 
5. Number the pages in the order of their 
succession. 6. Write in a plain bold hand, 
with less respect to beauty. 7. Use no ab- 



MISCELLANEO US. 



253 



brevlations which are not to appear in 
print. 8. Punctuate the manuscript as it 
should be printed. 9. For italics under- 
score one line ; for small capitals two ; for 
capitals three. 10. Never interline without 
the caret to show its place. 11. Take special 
pains with every letter in proper names. 
12. Review every word to be sure that none 
is illegible. 13. Put directions to the prin- 
ter at the head of the first page. 14. Never 
write a private letter to the editor on the 
printer's copy, but always on a separate 
sheet. 



Cash axd Credit.— If yon would get rich 
don't deal in bill books. Credit is the "tempt- 
er in a new shape." Buy goods on trust, 
and you will buy a thousand articles that 
Cash would never have dreamed of. A shil- 
ling in the hand looks larger than ten shil- 
lings seen through the perspective of a three 
months bill. Cash is practical, while Credit 
takes horribly to taste and romance. Let 
Cash buy a dinner, and you will have beef- 
steak flanked with onions. Send Credit to 
market, and he will return with eight pair 
of woodcocks and a peck of mushrooms.— • 
Credit believes in diamond pins and cham- 
pagne suppers. Cash is more easily satis- 
fied. Give him three meals a day, and he 
don't care much if two of them are made up 
of roasted potatoes and a litt)e dirty salt. — 
Cash is a good adviser, while Credit is a 
good fellow to be on visiting terms with. 
If you want double chins and contentment, 
do business with cash. 

Habits of a man of Business. 

A sacred regard to the principles of justice 
forms the basis of every transaction, and 
rej-ulates the conduct of the upright man of 
business. 

He is strict in keeping his engagements. 

Does nothing carelessly or in a hurry. 

Employs no one to do what he can easily 
do himself. 

Keeps everything in its proper place. 

Leaves nothing undone that ought to be 
done, and which circumstances permit him 
to do. 

Keeps his designs and business from the 
view of others. 



Is prompt and decisive with his custom- 
ers, and does not overtrade his capital. 

Prefers short credits to long ones, and 
cash to credit at all times, either in buying 
or selling ; and small profits in credit cases, 
with little risk to the chance of better gains 
with more hazard. 

He is clear and explicit in all his bar- 
gains. 

Leaves nothing of consequence to memo- 
ry which he can and ought to commit to 
writing. 

Keeps copies of all his important letters 
which he sends away, and has every letter, 
invoice, &c., relating to his business, titled, 
classed, and put away. 

Never suffers his desk to be confused by 
many papers lying upon it. 

Is always at the head of his business, 
well knowing that if he leaves it it will 
leave him. 

Holds it as a maxim that he whose credit 
is suspected is not one to be trusted. 

Is constantly examining his books, and 
sees through his whole affairs as far as care 
and attention will enable him. 

Balances regularly at stated times, and 
then makes ont and transmits all his ac- 
counts current to his customers, both at 
home and abroad. 

Avoids as much as possible all sorts of ac- 
commodation in money matters and law- 
suits where there is the least hazard. 

He is economical in his expenditures, al- 
ways living within his income. 

Keeps a memorandum book in his pocket, 
in which he notes every particular relative 
to appointments, addresses and petty cash 
matters. 

Is cautious how he becomes surety for 
any person ; and is generous when urged 
by motives of humanity. 

Let a man act strictly to these habits ; 
when once begun they will be easy to con- 
tinue — ever remembering that he hath no 
profits by his pains whom Providence doth 
not prosper— and success will attend his 
eft'orts. 

Take pleasure in your business, and it 
will become your recreation. 

Hope for the best, think for the worst, 
and bear whatever happens.

J. O. liOvett, Dealer in Dry Goods, at 
Palmyra, is conducting a business that was 
established in 1835. His long experience 
enables him to make the best selections of 
goods in market, and to purchase at the 
lowest prices. He does not mean to be un- 
dersold by any house in Western New York. 
See card, page 182. 

E. A, Edgett, Proprietor of the 
" "Wayne County Preserving Establish- 
ment " at Newark, has had many years 
practical experience in his profession — 
about ten, we believe, in Oneida County and 
two in Wayne. Mr. Edgett's factory is 
large and well proportioned, exactly calcu- 
lated for the business for which it was 
erected. He keeps several tinsmiths con- 
stantly at work manufacturing cans. About 
200,000 cans, of various kinds, are put up 
annually. Green Com, Peaches, Tomatoes, 
and indeed all kinds of fruit or vegetables, 
may be perfectly preserved, so that if left 
in a warm room for one or two years even, 
they would appear fresh as when first 
canned. Mr. Edgett's speciality, we under- 
stand, 'is green com, of which he puts up 
large quantities, principally for the New 
York market, though he wiU fill orders from 
other places. His green com is considered 
the best in market. His establishment gives 
employment to about 100 hands — ^principally 

firls — during the preserving season. House- 
eepers will, generally, find it cheaper, all 
things considered, to purchase canned fruits 
than to preserve them in the old fashioned 
way. See card, page 159. 

H. M, Nortb. Dentist, at Palmyra, 
has been in successral practice for twenty- 
one years, during which time he has gained 
a host of friends among his large number of 
patients. See his card on page 190. Mr. 
North is in every way qualified and pre- 
pared to do any amount of work in the best 
possible manner.

furs, straw and fancy goods, and that they 
do well. See card, page 176.

bark, for which he pays cash. See card,

dium. Mr. Averill has superior facilities 
for executing all kinds of Job Printing in a

vise those business men of Palmyra, who 
have never done so, to try oiling the wheels 
of business, by informing through the col-

In the manufactures of Auburn, that of 
the Cayuga Cblef manufacturing 

Co. is important and worthy of note. 

The Company have extensive works loca- 
ted near the track of the N. Y. Central R. R. 
some forty rods west of the Depot. Their 
works are new, and complete in its machin- 
ery and appointments. At the time of our 
visit, they were completing Twenty-five 
machines daily which include Mowers, and 
combined Hand and Self-Rake Reapers. An 
examination of their order book showed 
that notwithstanding the rapidity with 
which they were turning out machines, the 
demand was greatly in excess of the supply, 
and that a large number of orders must re- 
main unfilled. The Company are preparing 
to still further enlarge their facilities by the 
erection of additional buildings. See card, 
page 236 and cut 195. 

Frederick Boebn&ler & Son,

sure all, that they will be fairly dealt with. 
See advertisement, page 170. 

Clyde Iron "Works, Wood, Candler 
& Co., proprietors, Clyde, N. Y. These 
are among the most extensive works of the 
kind in this part of the State. The propri- 
etors are practical workmen of long experi- 
ence^ and have facilities for turning out al- 
most any machine, made of either wood or 
iron. For their specialities we would re^ 
fer the reader to their card on page 4 of this 
work. 

Their works are driven by a powerful 
steam engine, and are capable of turning 
out an immense amount of work yearly. — 
As a testimonial of their skill, we would 
say that during the past winter and spring 
they have fitted np the gearing, boilers, &c. 
for both the paper mills at Clyde, and which 
we believe^ are giving entire satisfaction. 

The firm gives employment to a large 
force of mechanics and laborers, thus ad- 
ding materially to the growth and prosper- 
ity of this enterprising village. They de- 
serve the patronage of the farmers of 
Wayne Co. For further particulars in re-

D. "W. Farsliall, of I/yons. The 

subject of our skdtch, was born in the town 
of Palmyra, about 1812. His father was a 
well-to-do farmer for those times, and 
young Parshall grew up practicallyacquaint- 
ed with the mysteries of successful farm- 
ing, and which, no doubt molded the man, 
and laid the foundations of his subsequent 
success in that direction. When quite a 
young man, Mr. Parshall attended school 
at Canandaigua, where he was for some 
time an intimate friend and room-mate of 
the late Stephen A. Douglas. 

In 1834, he came to Lyons, where he com- 
menced the study of law in the office of Gen. 
Wm. H. Adams. He was at this time 23 
years of age. After being admitted he com- 
menced business on his own account about 
1840, since which time he has gained an 
extensive practice, and amassed a large 
fortune. 

He has been for many years very largely 
engaged in buying and selling real , estate, 
and we understand it is a favorite practice 
of his to buy "dilapidated" farms, which 
in a very brief space of time, it would al- 
most seem by magic, he transforms into 
places so entirely changed, that their late 
occupants would hai'dly know them. — 
The buildings are repaired or new ones 
built, fences are all in their places, and sub- 
stantially built, the fields are cleaned up 
and the land improved. By this process, 
Mr. Parshall is enabled not only to enrich 
himself but benefit others. At present he 
has about 1,400 acres situated in the towns 
of Sodus and Huron, on Sodus Bay, and 
known as the "Shaker Tract." He has 
also in Lyons and in Sodus, other farms, 
amounting to about 400 acres, and one in 
Galen, near Clyde, of about 300 acres. In 
1852, he commenced banking in Lyons, 
where he started the institution knovra as 
" The Palmyra Bank of Lyons," which was 
afterwards changed to " Lyons Bank," and 
was again changed to "Lyons National 
Bank," under which name the business is 
at present conducted. 

Mr. Parshall has a large amount of 
real estate in the city of Buffalo, and also in 
the village of Lyons. In the latter place, he 
owns several blocks, containing in all about 
15 stores ; he has also several lots centrally 
located on "William and Canal Streets, on 
which he intends building new blocks. To 
him much of the prosperity and wealth of 
the town is due. Personally, Mr. Parshall 
is of commanding stature, full form, and we 
should judge enjoys robust health. He is a 
plain man, always attending to the inter- 
ests of his business, and we believe enjoys 
the confidence and respect of all who have 
had occasion to make his acquaintance. — 
See card of " Lyons National Bank," page 
173. 

S. D. & J, M. Streeter, Maltsters 
and proprietors of the Brick Warehouse and 
Elevators, at Clyde, are extensive dealers 
in all kinds of Grain, Country Produce, 
Wool, Apples, Salt, Water Lime, &c. Their's 
i« the only fire-proof elevator and the only 
one driven by steam, and has a capacity far 
greater than any other in the county. The 
farmers of Wayne county will undoubtedly 



find it to their interest to market their pro- 
duce with this enterprising firm. See their 
advertisement, page 196. 

Sayden & Xetohworth, at No. 9 East 
Genesee street. Auburn, are extensive 
manufacturers and wholesale dealers in 
Harness, Saddlery and Carriage Hardware, 
Harness and Carriage Trimmings of all 
kinds. Wayne county carriage makers, or 
harness makers can . here find anything in 
their line, of superior quality, and at the 
most reasonable prices. They keep all kinds 
of trimmings and fixtures required in the 
trades. We would advise some of our read- 
ers to call on the above gentlemen, and in- 
form them they noticed their advertise- 
ment in the Directory. By so doing, we 
have no doubt they will be richly paid for 
their trip. Try it. See their card, page 248. 

JE. J). McElwain, of Lyons, manufac- 
tures Carriages, Buggies, and all kinds of 
Wagons, Sleighs and Cutters, from superi- 
or timber, and first quality of iron. He em- 
ploys none but skillful workmen in each 
department, and fills orders for any style 
carriage desired, on satisfactory terms. — 
See card, page 212. 

Calvin C. JEverson & Co., Cigar Man- 
ufacturers, at Palmyra, are prepared to fur- 
nish dealers and hotels with their superior 
brands of cigars, low as the market will af- 
ford. See card, page 212. 

F. BumpTirey & Son, Proprietors of the 
"Commercial Foundry," and Manufactur- 
ers of Agricultural Implements, at Clyde, 
publish a card on page 214. They have 
been long established in business, and have 
gained an excellent reputation for durabili- 
ty and superior points of their productions. 
We -would especially recommend an exami- 
nation of their "Water Elevator," the most 
perfect thing of the kind we have ever 
seen. 

A. Sherma/n, Manufacturer and Dealer 
in Open and Top Buggies, Carriages, 
Sleighs, Cutters, &c., at Palmyra, has been 
many years in his present location, and al- 
ways keeps a stock worthy the attention of 
those wanting to purchase. His work is 
made up of the best materials of all kinds, 
by workmen experienced in their several 
departments. See card, page 222. 

Sweeny's Eaffle Botel, Palmyra, has 
long been a favorite resort of traveling men. 
His rooms are nefet and his tables well or- 
dered and supplied with the delicacies of 
the season. As a host, Mr. Sweeny is ge- 
nial and obliging, and is very reasonable in 
his charges. Find card, page 333. 

W, JET. JBowwian & Sons, Hardware 
dealers at Palmyra. This establishment 
has for a long time been doing a successful 
business. Their stock is complete in every 
department, and very extensive. Probably 
the chief secret of their success is in that 
their goods are uniformly good in quality 
and afforded at reasonable prices, they pre- 
ferring to make large sales on small per- 
centages, to small sales on the basis of large 
percentages. See their card, page 193.

ber that a "Policy of Life Insurance is the 
best legacy that can be left to one's fami- 
ly." See card, page 236. 

Ijevant Hedell, at Clyde, is a Watch 
Maker and Repairer of well known merit.

3Irs. E. G. Tripjt, Fashionable Mil- 
liner, Fancy Goods, Hoop Skft-t and Cor-

and has won an enviable reputation for 
getting up durable and stylish work at rea- 
sonable prices. See card, page 2(M. 



Tlie Macedon Sotel, at Macedon, has 
recently passed into the hands of Messrs. 
Spaulding & Knapp, who have established 
a free omnibus line to and from the cars for 
the use of their guests. They have other- 
wise fitted up their house, and intend to 
keep it in style to suit their customers. See

D. W. S. Xee, Dentist, • at Sodus, has 
had an extensive and successful practice. 
He has, by his skill in workmanship, made 
many friends who can testily in his favor.

card, page 230. 

Tlie Marion Collegiate Intrtitute and 
Commercial Academy, located at Ma- 
rion, has, from its commencement, been a 
success. The building is substantially 
built of brick, three stones high, roomy and 
well ventilated. The various recitation 
rooms are fitted up with modem school 
furniture. The Institution is provided with 
a large Library. It has also an extensive 
and valuable apparatus for the purpose of 
Philosophical and Chemical experiments, 
tegether with a French Manikin and a Skel- 
eton, which are valuable to the student in 
Anatomy and Physiology, a valuable Tele- 
scope for Astronomical students, a valua- 
ble Cabinet of Geological Specimens, &c. 
The village of Marion is peculiarly adapted 
for the location of such a school, and 
should be appreciated by parents and oth- 
ers who have the care and education of the 
youth of our country in their charge. The 
village is known for its excellent moral in- 
fluences, and forits anti-license population. 
Drunkenness is unknown. It is but six 
miles from Palmyra, on the N. Y. C. R. R., 
is connected therewith by a daily line of 
stages, and is therefore easy of access. Mr. 
Thos. B. Lovell, the present principal, has 
for some years past been at the head of the 
school, and has proved himself thorough, 
eflicient and popular. He is assisted by an 
able corps of popular and very succeseful 
teachers. We know of no school we could 
recommend to young ladies or gentlemen 
desiring a good sound education, as prefer- 
able to the " Marion Collegiate Institute." 
See card, page 164. 

I7te Franklin Mouse, at Clyde, is un- 
der the management of Messrs. Howes & 
Holmes, gentlemen who uniformly strive 
to accommodate their guests. Their table 
is always supplied with the delicacies, as 
well as subetautials of the season. We 
would recommend travellers to stop at the 
"Franklin," near the depot, when visiting 
Clyde. See card, page 218. 

Perry Ahny, Photographer, at Sodus, 
finishes up pictures of all styles in a supe- 
rior manner. He takes great pains in the 
toning, and warrants his pictures not to 
turn yellow or fade. We would recommend 
those who wish to " see themselves as oth- 
ers see them," to visit his gallery. See 
card, page 218.

PTIBLISHEE'S CARD. 



I^tJBLl^HEIt^S C^I^I>, 



Before leaving the work in which I have, for the past few months, 
been so earnestly engaged, I desire to return thanks to all who 
have so kindly aided me in the effort to produce a work, which I 
confidently hope will prove -of great value to its possessors. Those 
who have furnished information, (historical or otherwise,) for its 
pages, have my special thanks, while those who have pecuniarly 
aided in the way of subscriptions for advertisings will, I trust, re- 
ceive liberal cash dividends as the legitimate fruits thereof. Sub- 
scribers for the work it is hoped in ay find much that is new, in- 
^ructive, and valuable. 

As a parting word to my friends in Wayne County, I would 
suggest to the business men, that very many of them would find 
Printer's Ink a great lubricator of the wheels of business. Too 
many seem to have fallen into a settled apathy, as regards business 
matters ; willing to serve such customers as come unasked to their 
doors, but who make no efforts to retain at home, the large 
amount of trade annually diverted to the cities of Syracuse and 
Rochester. As a general thing you are not willing to admit that 
the merchants of those cities can afford to sell the same class of 
goods cheaper than you can. Their rents, taxes and clerk hire, 
usually cost far more than yours — while your money will buy 
goods in market just as cheap as theirs. Why, then, should your 
citizens patronize the city merchants rather than yourselves ? In 
penning this article, I can have no selfish interest in view, as my 



\ 



PUBLISHER'S CABD. 259 



present work with you is accomplished. It is purely for your own 
interest, that I suggest the propriety of your advertising more lib- 
erally. Advertise extensively, and all the time — through the col- 
umns of your local newspapers, by hand-bills, by circulars, by 
cards, by every means you can employ. Advertise ; let the peo- 
ple know you are alive, and that you have good goods, and full as- 
sortments, in your special lines, and that you will sell cheap, at 
city prices. And, .finally, if you keep posted as to''the markets, 
and do as you advertise, our word for it, you will very soon be sur- 
prised at the increase of your sales. I do not mean that advertising 
alone will build up any business, or the loanf of it hinder its pros- 
perity ; but I do assert, emphatically, and had I time and space to 
do so, could prove by large numbers of the many thousand persons 
with* whom I have had business, that, in nine cases out of ten, adver- 
tising liberally and long is one of the best of business investments. 

Do not be deceived by the too popular idea that "you are so long 
established, that everybody knows where you are, and what you 
have to sell." I tell you it is, oi* your part, a grave error. 

How many men in your county have been there but one or two 
years, or, perhaps, have just made their residence with you ? Of 
what benefit is your "long established reputation" in such a case. 
Your neighbor, perhaps, who has been in business but a few months, 
is just as well "established," in the mind of such a man, as "you," 
who boast of being "so long in business that everybody knows 
you, and you know everybody." Politely speaking, you are "an. 
old/ossilJ^ 

You will say that the new man must have some customers, and 
you will all stand your chances. Such a course will do very well 
when you are not anxious to increase your trade, or when you are 
quite willing to diminish it ; for, while you are satisfied with this 
state of affairs, some more enterprising tradesman will reach your 
would-be customer, and perhaps withdraw his patronage from your 
village altogether. You should bear in mind always, that there is 
a dividing point between your village and those adjacent, and that 



260 



PUBLISHEE'S CARD. 



the custom of citizens living near such dividing point, generally 
goes to that place which holds out the most favorable inducements. 

A friendly rivalry in advertising, by parties engaged in the vari- 
ous kinds of business, is invariably noticed and commented upon 
by the masses who read, alid tend to materially increase the busi- 
ness of a village. Don't be altogether selfish in your motives. — 
Woi'k for the benefit of youf locality, and you will surely teap 
your reward. In other words, build up your village, make it a 
center for a large strip of surrounding country. 

As mediums for advertising, you have many : First of all is 
your Local Papers; your Editors are all good fellows, and would 
be pleased to advise their many readers who to deal with. Try 
them ; they are liberal, and uniformly obliging. Their local items, 
if you would allow it, might be the means of depositing many dol- 
lars in your till. As for other means of advertising, "their name 
is legion," the principal ingredient of which is Printer'' s Ink; the 
benefit to be derived from which, depends more or less upon the 
size of doses. 

With thanks to friends generally, and especially to the several 
thousand patrons of the "Gazetteer And IDirectory of Wayiie 
County," I leave my work for the present, hoping in after years 
to again meet and serve you in a similar undertaking.
